Elvis Merzlikins (upper-body) returned to practice on Monday and, as expected, Greaves has been reassigned to the Cleveland Monsters (AHL). The 23-year-old Greaves played nine games with the Blue Jackets last season (3-6-0), posting a 3.49 GAA and .908 SV%.
Andrae was recalled by the Flyers at the beginning of the season after Nick Seeler (lower-body) was placed on Injured Reserve, but did not crack the lineup for any of the five games he was with the team. The 22-year-old defenseman appeared in four games with the Flyers in 2023-24 but spent the majority of the year with Lehigh Valley (AHL) and had five goals and 32 points in 61 games played.
The struggling Predators, the only team without a point in the 2024-25 season (0-5-0), are looking for a spark and have recalled L'Heureux from the Milwaukee Admirals (AHL). The 21-year-old L'Heureux was the 27th overall pick of the Predators in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft and has yet to make his NHL debut. He had 48 points (19G / 29A) in 66 games with Milwaukee last season.
With the Devils assigning Seamus Casey to the Utica Comets (AHL), Misyul has been recalled and could get his first taste of NHL action. The 24-year-old Misyul was the 70th overall pick of the Devils in 2019 NHL Entry Draft. Misyul had 14 points (4G / 10A) in 44 games with Utica last season, his first taste of professional hockey in North America.
Despite a solid start to his NHL career, Casey will report to the Utica Comets of the AHL. In his first eight games, the 20-year-old Casey has four points (3G / 1A), seven blocks, and four hits. The Devils have recalled Daniil Misyul from Utica in a corresponding move.
Wagner has been in and out of the lineup since the injury to Jonathan Drouin (upper-body) in Colorado's season opener. Wagner has played two games so far, recording a -1 plus/minus, three hits, and three shots on goal.
Petrovic was called up last week after Matt Dumba (lower-body) was injured. Given that Dumba is only about a week into his week-to-week injury prognosis, Petrovic's demotion to the Texas Stars (AHL) is likely just a paper transaction. The 32-year-old Petrovic spent the majority of 2023-24 with the Texas Stars (AHL) and had five goals and 22 points in 70 games played.
Blumel made his season debut for Dallas on Saturday, filling in for Sam Steel (undisclosed). The 24-year-old Blumel played 8:00 time-on-ice and had two shots in goal while playing in his first NHL game since the 2022-23 season.
Reinhardt will replace Mads Sogaard on the Senators' roster for their road trip next week. The 24-year-old only has one career NHL game under his belt, but could get into the lineup next week after a strong start in the AHL--two goals and three assists in three games.
Returning Sogaard to the AHL is a sign that Linus Ullmark is healthy enough to travel on the Senators' upcoming road-trip. Sogaard stopped 27 of 28 shots in an OT loss in his only AHL game this season.
Harkins spent most of the 2023-24 campaign with the Pittsburgh Penguins, tallying four points (0G / 4A) in 45 games. The 27-year-old, in his first season with the Ducks organization, has 31 points (13G / 18A) in 199 career NHL games.
Hunt being recalled likely indicates that Jared Spurgeon (lower body) will not be ready to return to Minnesota's lineup on Saturday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The 22-year-old Hunt has played one game with Minnesota this season, tallying 8:01 time-on-ice and two shots on goal.
Mailloux was the 31st overall pick of the Canadiens in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. The 21-year-old played one game with the Canadiens last season, his NHL debut, and recorded one assist. He has four points (2G / 2A) in two games this season with the Laval Rocket (AHL).
Kasper was the eighth overall pick of the Red Wings in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. The 20-year-old has played one NHL game, back in the 2022-23 season, but has spent the majority of his professional career in the AHL. He has 37 points (15G / 22A) in 73 games with the Grand Rapids Griffins (AHL).m
With Alec Martinez (lower-body) being placed on Injured Reserve, the Blackhawks have recalled Phillips from the Rockford IceHogs (AHL). The 23-year-old Phillips set a career-high in games played last season, scoring six points (0G / 6A) in 33 games with the Blackhawks.
