Minor Transactions: 03/04/19

The NHL is almost entirely quiet today, with just two games on the schedule for this evening. Those include Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers travelling to Buffalo to take on the Sabres, while the Toronto Maple Leafs head to Alberta to take on the Calgary Flames. As teams take a day off there will surely be some roster movement, and we’ll be here to keep track of it all.

• Matt Read was returned to the minor leagues by the Minnesota Wild last night after playing one game with the team, but is already back up today. Read scored in Saturday’s matchup against the Flames, his first goal in the NHL this season. The 32-year old has played just six games for Minnesota this season, instead spending most of the year in the AHL with the Iowa Wild.
• Matt Luff has been recalled once again by the Los Angeles Kings, after being sent down just two days ago. Luff has been bouncing up and down for much of the year, but has played just one NHL game since the middle of January. The Kings will welcome the Montreal Canadiens into town tomorrow.
