Taxi Squad Shuffle: 03/13/21

March 13, 2021 at 10:38 am CDT | by Brian La Rose Leave a Comment

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:

North Division

  • The Maple Leafs announced (Twitter link) that they have recalled Scott Sabourin to the taxi squad. The winger was recently converted to an NHL two-way deal and made his season debut in the minors last night.  It was a short-lived one, however, as he was ejected in the first shift of the game after instigating a fight following a goalie interference penalty.
  • The Senators announced (Twitter link) that they’ve assigned Clark Bishop back to their taxi squad.  Bishop made his Ottawa debut last night against Edmonton, picking up a pair of shots on goal in just under nine minutes of work.
  • The Calgary Flames have announced a one-for-one swap, recalling defenseman Oliver Kylington from the taxi squad and replacing him with the demotion of forward Zac Rinaldo. Kylington is expected to draw into the lineup tonight for the Flames.

East Division

  • The Bruins have recalled Anton Blidh, Greg McKegg, and Jeremy Swayman to the taxi squad, per the AHL’s Transactions log. Blidh and McKegg were sent down just yesterday to get a game in with Providence while Swayman is needed with starting goalie Tuukka Rask batting a minor injury.  Urho Vaakanainen, Jack Studnicka, and Steven Kampfer were also recalled from the taxi squad, per CBS’ transactions log.
  • The Flyers announced (Twitter link) that they’ve brought up defenseman Nate Prosser and winger Andy Andreoff from the taxi squad.  Prosser has a goal in two games so far this season while Andreoff has yet to record a point in his four contests.
  • The Rangers recalled Keith Kinkaid, Kaapo Kakko, and K’Andre Miller from the taxi squad, per CBS’ transactions log.  The three have frequently been shuffled back and forth in an effort to free up extra salary cap space.
  • The Sabres announced (via Twitter) that they have recalled Brandon Davidson from the taxi squad while assigning Henri Jokiharju down to the taxi squad.  Davidson has played in four games with Buffalo so far this season, logging nearly 15 minutes a night of ice time.
  • The Penguins announced that they’ve assigned defenseman Josh Maniscalco to the taxi squad.  The 22-year-old signed as an undrafted free agent last year and has played in two games with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season.

Central Division

  • The Stars announced (Twitter link) that they’ve recalled Rhett Gardner and Joel L’Esperance from the taxi squad while sending Ty Dellandrea to the taxi squad.  Gardner and L’Esperance have been held off the scoresheet in four games each this season while Dellandrea has a goal and two assists in 15 contests.
  • The Panthers announced (Twitter link) that they’ve recalled Riley Stillman from the taxi squad.  The 23-year-old played in 34 games for Florida last season but has only gotten into one NHL game so far this season.

West Division

  • Jamie Drysdale’s time on Anaheim’s taxi squad has ended again without the blueliner getting into his first NHL game as the Ducks have sent him back to AHL San Diego, per the AHL’s transactions log.  The 18-year-old defenseman has played quite well in his first taste of the pros, picking up nine points in a dozen games with the Gulls this season as he waits to see if the OHL will get up and running this season.  Goaltender Olle Eriksson Ek was also recalled to the taxi squad.
  • The Sharks have flipped taxi squad goaltenders as Alexei Melnichuk has been recalled from AHL San Jose while Josef Korenar has been sent from the taxi squad to the Barracuda, per the AHL’s transactions log.  Melnichuk played in five games while on this particular assignment, allowing 16 goals on 119 shots.

This page will be updated throughout the day.
