Meyers was shipped down to AHL Coachella Valley on Friday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Meyers has appeared in eight games for the Kraken this season but has yet to register a point while averaging 8:21 of ice time. If the 26-year-old winger does get called back up during the rest of the campaign, he figures to slot into a bottom-six role where he will offer minimal offensive upside.

Kraken's Ben Meyers: Inks one-year agreement
Rotowire
Meyers signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Kraken on Monday.
Meyers recorded a goal and three points in 23 regular-season contests between Colorado and Anaheim in 2023-24. He also had 11 goals and 25 points in 32 AHL appearances with the Eagles. Meyers has a significant shot of making Seattle's roster out of training camp since he's on a one-way deal, but he may be a frequent healthy scratch if the team's prospects can stick at the NHL level.

Ducks' Ben Meyers: Playing time shaky after trade
Rotowire
Meyers played in 14 of the Ducks' final 20 games after he was traded from the Avalanche.
A reunion with head coach Greg Cronin, who worked with Meyers at AHL Colorado in previous seasons, was not enough to spark the winger's offense. The 25-year-old has not accumulated enough games in his career to remain a restricted free agent, so he'll be a Group 6 unrestricted free agent this summer. Meyers has eight points over 67 career NHL appearances.

Ducks' Ben Meyers: Bags apple in overtime loss
Rotowire
Meyers notched an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Lightning.
Meyers has a helper in each of the last two games after spending two contests in the press box as a healthy scratch. The 25-year-old forward is still limited to fourth-line duties, but he's making a stronger case to stay in the lineup over Benoit-Olivier Groulx. Meyers has three points, 12 shots on net, 23 hits and a minus-3 rating over 16 games between the Ducks and the Avalanche this season.

Ducks' Ben Meyers: Gets first point with new team
Rotowire
Meyers recorded an assist and two hits in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.
Meyers has played in six of the Ducks' eight games since he was acquired via trade from the Avalanche. The 25-year-old forward has mostly been limited to a bottom-six role, and that's not great for his fantasy value on a low-scoring team. For the season, he's produced two points, 11 shots on net, 22 hits and a minus-5 rating through 15 appearances.

Ducks' Ben Meyers: Flipped for pick
Rotowire
Meyers was acquired by the Ducks from Colorado on Friday in exchange for a 2024 fifth-round selection.
Meyers has been struggling to get into the Avs' lineup this season, logging just nine NHL games in which he recorded one goal on seven shots, 12 hits and a minus-2 rating. Meyers was sent to the minors following the trade to maintain eligibility for the AHL playoffs, per the AHL's transaction list, but he was then promptly recalled by the Ducks, so the 25-year-old should see additional NHL opportunities down the stretch.
