Moverare's short stint with Ontario (AHL) lasted a total of three days as the 25-year-old was recalled from the minors on Friday. The rookie defensemen scored his first NHL goal this season but is still without an assist to go along with his 10 SOG, six PIMs and +3 plus/minus through 19 games played this season.
The Kings have gotten healthier of late which has limited Moverare's game time, so they've opted to send him back down to Ontario where he can command a larger role. He has one goal in 19 games with the Kings this season.
Edmundson played only 14:50 time-on-ice in the Maple Leafs' last game and is battling an undisclosed injury. In seven games with the Maple Leafs, Edmundson has zero points, five shots, and 14 hits.
After a disastrous 7-3 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday, the Capitals will turn to Kuemper between the pipes on Friday against the Carolina Hurricanes.

The Capitals enter action as +174 road underdogs against the Hurricanes.
