Silovs was recalled under emergency conditions on Tuesday but will return to the Abbotsford Canucks (AHL) on Wednesday. The 23-year-old Silovs has split time between the NHL and AHL this season but has been more successful in Abbotsford, posting a 2.53 GAA and .906 SV% in eight games (5-3-0).
Innala has split time between the AHL and NHL in his first professional season in North America. The 26-year-old has been impressive at the AHL level, scoring 15 points (5G / 10A) in 21 games but has not seen that success translate to the NHL level, scoring zero points in 14 games.
Ivan has seen some deployment at the AHL level lately where he's tallied two points (1G / 1A) in two games with the Eagles (AHL). The 22-year-old Czech forward has eight points (5G / 3A) in 39 games with the Avalanche but has been held off the scoresheet in 17 straight.

Levi was between the pipes for the Sabres in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Seattle Kraken, filling in for an injured Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen. Levi's return to the AHL likely indicated that Luukkonen is ready to return to the lineup.
