The Golden Knights recalled Kaedan Korczak from Henderson (AHL).
Korczak was the No.41 overall pick in the 2019 NHL draft and the 20-year-old blueliner has two assists in 13 career AHL games to date. With Alec Martinez and Zach Whitecloud out, Korczak was recalled so the Golden Knights would have seven defensemen in Colorado. He could make his NHL debut on Tuesday.
Mitchell has been recalled from Rockford (AHL) and will draw into the Blackhawks lineup on Sunday.
The Jets have recalled Dominic Toninato from Manitoba (AHL).
The Jets sent Cole Perfetti down yesterday and have recalled Toninato in a corresponding move. The 27-year-old has one assist in two games with the Moose this season.
The Devils have recalled Nico Daws from Utica (AHL).
Daws started his 2021-22 season by stopping 25 of 27 shots in a win in his AHL debut. The 2020 third-round selection spent last season in Germany, where he was 4-6-0 with a 2.90 GAA and .897 SV%. There's no indication why Daws was called up because now the Devils have three goalies on the active roster.
The Panthers recalled Chase Priskie from Charlotte (AHL).
It's unclear what the plan for Priskie is, a Panthers' regular must be banged up. Priskie has one assist in two AHL games so far this season and if he ends up playing Thursday, it will be his NHL debut.
Send Down
The Jets reassigned Cole Perfetti to Manitoba (AHL).
Perfetti failed to record a point in his first two NHL games and gets reassigned to AHL where he can play top-6 minutes. Perfetti had nine goals and 17 assists (26 points) in 32 AHL games last year.
The Oilers have recalled Stuart Skinner from Bakersfield (AHL).
The Edmonton gets called up after Mike Smith (lower-body) landed on IR on Wednesday. The 22-year-old netminder has gong 2-0-0 while stopping 53 of 56 shots (.946 SV%) in his first two AHL starts of 2021-22. The Oilers have a back-to-back on Thursday/Friday, so Skinner could get the nod in one of those two games.
The Predators sent Cody Glass to Milwaukee (AHL) on Monday.
The Avalanche have recalled Mikhail Maltsev from Colorado (AHL).
Maltsev opened the season in the AHL but got off to a hot start, picking up four points (1G / 3A) in two games. Maltsev and Martin Kaut were both recalled and are expected to make their season debuts on Tuesday.
The Avalanche have recalled Martin Kaut from Colorado (AHL).
Kaut has picked up two assists in his first two AHL games this season and could make his season debut with Colorado on Tuesday. The Avalanche played with just 11 forwards on Saturday, so both Kaut and Mikhail Maltsev should draw in vs. the Capitals.
Send Down
The Avalanche have reassigned Dylan Sikura to Colorado (AHL).
Sikura failed to record a point in 12:39 TOI in his Avalanche debut on Saturday. He was sent down and Colorado recalled Martin Kaut and Mikhail Maltsev to take his place on the roster.
The Blackhawks have recalled Mike Harman from Rockford (AHL).
Hardman had one goal and two assists (three points) in eight games with the Blackhawks last season. He opened the AHL season with two assists in two games. After being called up this morning, Hardman was skating on the third line with Henrik Borgstrom and Alex DeBrincat, so look for him to play on Tuesday.
The Blackhawks have sent Ian Mitchell to Rockford (AHL).
Mitchell played in the Blackhawks season opener but was scratched in after they signed Erik Gustafsson to a one-year deal. Mitchell will get playing time in Rockford, where he had one assist in five games last season.
The Rangers have recalled Morgan Barron from Hartford (AHL).
Barron has had a nice start to the 2021-22 season, scoring two goals in his first two AHL games. The 22-year-old has one goal in five career NHL games and will take Kaapo Kakko's (upper-body) spot on the roster.
The Predators have recalled Connor Ingram from Milwaukee (AHL).
David Rittich was added to the COVID-19 protocol list, so Ingram has been brought up to serve as Juuse Saros vs. Carolina.
The Avalanche recalled Dylan Sikura from Colorado (AHL).
The Avalanche are likely going to be without Nathan MacKinnon (COVID), Valeri Nichushkin (upper-body) and Gabriel Landeskog (suspension) on Saturday, so Sikura will make his Avalanche. Sikura has 16 points (3G / 13A) in 53 career NHL games with the Blackhawks and Golden Knights.
The Avalanche recalled Stefan Matteau from Colorado (AHL).
The Avalanche are likely going to be without Nathan MacKinnon (COVID), Valeri Nichushkin (upper-body) and Gabriel Landeskog (suspension) on Saturday, so Matteau will make his Avalanche debut. The 27-year-old has 11 points (6G / 5A) in 91 career NHL games with the Devils, Canadiens, Golden Knights and Blue Jackets.
The Avalanche have reassigned Alex Newhook to Colorado (AHL).
The Avalanche are likely going to be without Nathan MacKinnon (COVID), Valeri Nichushkin (upper-body) and Gabriel Landeskog (suspension) on Saturday, so sending Newhook to the AHL opens up enough cap space to recall multiple forwards to fill the voids. Stefan Matteau and Dylan Sikura were recalled.
Call Up
The Lightning have recalled Andrej Sustr from Syracuse (AHL).
Sustr has been in the KHL for the last two seasons but returned to North America and Tampa this offseason. Sustr has 63 points (10G / 53A) in 323 career NHL games and is expected to replace Zach Bogosian (undisclosed) in the lineup on Thursday.
