The Islanders have recalled Cal Clutterbuck (wrist) from his conditioning assignment with Bridgeport (AHL).

Clutterbuck has been out since December 19th after undergoing wrist surgery but is ready to re-join the Islanders for Tuesday's morning skate. He played just two games during his conditioning stint but it's unclear whether or not he's 100 percent ready to return to the NHL lineup.

The Islanders have recalled Andrew Ladd from Bridgeport (AHL).

Ladd, who has played in just two NHL games and 34 AHL games this season, will be with the Islanders for the rest of the season following Monday's call-up. During his time in the AHL, he was second on the team with 11 goals, second only to the Kieffer Bellows, who he is replacing on the roster.

The Islanders have sent Kieffer Bellows to Bridgeport (AHL).

Following the acquisition of J.G. Pageau from the Senators, the Islanders announced that Bellows is going back to the AHL and Andrew Ladd is coming back up for good. Bellows has been solid in his brief time with the Isles, scoring two goals with one assist while playing 10:39 ATOI in eight games. He leads Bridgeport with 16 goals and is second with 24 points in 45 games.

The Canadiens have recalled Jake Evans from Laval (AHL).

With the Canadiens shipping Nick Cousins to the Golden Knights on Monday, Evans is back in the NHL after a brief return to the AHL. The 23-year-old has one goal in six games with the Canadiens but has really been strong in the AHL, leading Laval with 38 points (14G / 24A) in 51 games.

The Flyers have sent Joel Farabee to Lehigh Valley (AHL).

The Flyers added two forwards at the deadline (Derek Grant and Nate Thompson) so they'll send Farabee back to the AHL "for now." GM Chuck Fletcher said that he wants "to make sure we’re giving Joel all the ability to be the player he can become. He’s only 19. He’s been a big part of our team but he’s going to be an even bigger part of our future…I have no doubt he’ll be back with us and help us.” This move also keeps Farabee available for the AHL playoffs.

The Flyers have sent Connor Bunnaman to Lehigh Valley (AHL).

Bunnaman may be a casualty of the Flyers moves on Monday. Philadelphia added two veteran centres in Derek Grant and Nate Thompson, likely forcing Bunnaman to the AHL for the foreseeable future. The 21-year-old has two points (1G / 1A) in 21 NHL games and five points (4G / 1A) inn 24 AHL games this season.

Balcers has been recalled from Belleville (AHL) and will be in the lineup on Monday.

Balcers, who has one assist in seven games with the Senators this season, will come up after the Senators gutted their roster this afternoon. During his time in the AHL, the 22-year-old has scored 16 goals with 20 assists (36 points) in 33 games.

The Ducks have recalled Kiefer Sherwood from San Diego (AHL).

Sherwood has been called up on a number of occasions this season but has yet to appear in a game with the Ducks. He has played 50 career NHL games to-date and has 23 points (16G / 7A) in 37 AHL games this season. He could replace a potential trade chip like Derek Grant in their last game before the deadline.

The Blue Jackets have activated Joonas Koprisalo from IR and recalled him from Cleveland (AHL).

Korpisalo has been out since December 29th but comes back up after a one-game conditioning stint. Korpisalo, who was red-hot before he got hurt, stopped 32 of 34 shots in a winning effort in his game with Cleveland. Elvis Merzlikins has had a more difficult time recently, so Korpisalo should get a decent workload upon his return.

The Wild have recalled Gerald Mayhew from Iowa (AHL).

Mayhew has been terrific this season, leading the AHL in both goals (39) and points (61) and has also added two goals in seven NHL games. He comes up with Luke Kunin out at least 10-14 days but Ryan Donato will likely replace him in the lineup.

The Wild have recalled Louis Belpedio from Iowa (AHL).

Carson Soucy is expected to miss one month with an upper-body injury, so Belpedio comes up and will likely serve as the seventh defenseman on Sunday. The 23-year-old has not appeared in an NHL game this season but has two assists in three career NHL games. He's also picked up five goals and 13 assists (18 points) in 55 AHL games this season.
