There has been plenty of roster movement between NHL teams and the taxi squad on a daily basis this season. Although some major names may be highlighted in separate articles, this is where you’ll find the majority of that shuffle news each day.
Central Division
- The Columbus Blue Jackets have moved Stefan Matteau to the taxi squad, though there has yet to be a corresponding call-up or activation. Matteau, 26, made his season debut on Monday and now has 74 NHL games under his belt.
- The Detroit Red Wings have recalled Mathias Brome from the taxi squad as expected, with the team in action again tonight. Brome, an undrafted free agent who signed a one-year deal last spring, is still looking for his first NHL point.
East Division
- After another brutal loss where their high-priced talent failed to score, the Buffalo Sabres have made a handful of moves. Rasmus Asplund and William Borgen have been sent to the taxi squad. Steven Fogarty, Andrew Oglevie, C.J. Smith, and Jacob Bryson have been sent to the AHL.
- The New Jersey Devils have loaned Nicholas Merkley and Mikhail Maltsev to the taxi squad, while sending Evan Cormier and Jeremy Groleau back to the minor leagues. The team is off today and has two players on waivers, meaning someone like Merkley–who has three points in four games this season–could be back up tomorrow.
North Division
- The Calgary Flames have added three players to the roster, the team announced. Byron Froese and Oliver Kylington have been recalled from the taxi squad, while Brett Ritchie was recalled directly from the AHL Heat. Kylington and Ritchie have yet to suit up for the Flames this season, but are primed to get their first chance.
West Division
