It’s back to full go in the NHL after a quiet Wednesday evening, as there are 11 games on tap for tonight. That includes the Edmonton Oilers and Winnipeg Jets playing the second half of their home-and-home, while the Anaheim Ducks try to continue their winning streak against the Carolina Hurricanes. As those teams and others prepare, we’ll keep track of all the minor shuffling.
Atlantic Division
- The Ottawa Senators have sent Andrew Agozzino back to the AHL, another good sign that some players will be available when the season restarts for the COVID-afflicted group. Agozzino has played just one game for the Senators this season and failed to register a point.
Metropolitan Division
- At least for now, it appears as though Robin Salo will be the replacement for Ryan Pulock on the New York Islanders roster. The young Salo has been recalled from the AHL for the first time in his career. This is Salo’s first year in North America, but was the 46th overall pick in 2017 and has found plenty of success overseas. In 14 games for Bridgeport, he has eight points.
- The Philadelphia Flyers recalled forward Max Willman from Lehigh Valley under emergency conditions today, per a team tweet. The 26-year-old Willman has played two games for the big club this season and is still looking for his first NHL point, earning his chance due to his nine points in 12 AHL games (on pace for a career-high).
Central Division
- The Arizona Coyotes have confirmed the Ben McCartney assignment, sent back to the AHL yesterday. The 20-year-old has played in two games with the Coyotes so far, quite a feat for a player selected 204th overall in 2020.
Pacific Division
- The Vegas Golden Knights have recalled Ben Jones and Daniil Miromanov, adding some extra bodies for their match against the Red Wings. Jones, a seventh-round pick from 2017, has six points in 12 games for the Henderson Silver Knights.
