Taxi Squad Shuffle: 04/03/21

April 3, 2021 at 1:50 pm 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:

East Division

  • The Sabres have recalled Brandon Davidson and C.J. Smith from AHL Rochester to the taxi squad, per a team release. The two were sent down yesterday to get some playing time but won’t be getting into the second half of the back-to-back after all.
  • The Penguins announced that they have recalled Justin Almeida and Will Reilly to the taxi squad from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton while sending Radim Zohorna to the minors. Zohorna played twice last week on the fourth line but will undoubtedly see more playing time with this assignment.  Later in the day, they also announced that Maxime Lagace was recalled to the taxi squad from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.
  • The Flyers are bringing back Shayne Gostisbehere as they announced that they’ve recalled the defenseman along with Tanner Laczynski from the taxi squad.  Gostisbehere cleared waivers on Wednesday while Laczynski has six goals and four assists in 14 games with AHL Lehigh Valley this season.

Central Division

  • The Red Wings announced the promotions of Valtteri Filppula, Frans Nielsen, Givani Smith, and Michael Rasmussen from their taxi squad in advance of today’s game against Tampa Bay. Evgeny Svechnikov has been sent to the taxi squad after clearing waivers as well.
  • The Panthers announced that they have recalled Matt Kiersted from the taxi squad while sending Spencer Knight to the taxi squad. Kiersted signed with Florida on Thursday after wrapping up his NCAA career and will make his NHL debut tonight versus Columbus.

North Division

  • The Oilers announced that they have loaned Theodor Lennstrom to AHL Bakersfield from the taxi squad. The defenseman signed a one-year entry-level deal last April after a good showing in Sweden but has yet to play with Edmonton and has suited up just seven times so far with the Condors.
  • The Canadiens have returned Cole Caufield to AHL Laval, per the AHL’s transactions log. The 20-year-old signed last weekend and is still going through his mandatory quarantine period but was recalled in a paper move yesterday to keep Montreal’s taxi squad at the minimum number of players.

West Division
