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:
West Division
- Jayden Halbgewachs has been returned to the AHL by the San Jose Sharks as he continues to wait for his first NHL opportunity. The 24-year-old has been up and down all season but has still only seen minor league action.
North Division
- The Vancouver Canucks have recalled Ashton Sautner and Olli Juolevi from the taxi squad under emergency conditions while assigning Guillaume Brisebois and Tyler Graovac to it. The Canucks will have to battle the Maple Leafs without Alexander Edler tonight as he serves the first of his two-game suspension.
Central Division
- The Detroit Red Wings have swapped Kaden Fulcher and Kevin Boyle between the taxi squad and AHL, with the latter heading back to the Grand Rapids Griffins. That’s not the only move though; Mathias Brome has also been moved to the taxi squad.
- The Nashville Predators have reassigned Tanner Jeannot to the taxi squad, one of their normal off-day moves. The Predators will be back in action tomorrow against the Blackhawks and Jeannot may well be back on the active roster by then.
- The Dallas Stars have recalled rookie forward Ty Dellandrea and veteran defenseman Taylor Fedun from the taxi squad. Fedun would be making his season debut if he draws into the lineup, while Dellandrea has five points in 25 games so far this season.
East Division
- The Boston Bruins returned Daniel Vladar to the AHL so he could play this afternoon, but Urho Vaakanainen and Jack Ahcan both weren’t in the lineup. Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe confirmed on Twitter that the pair of youngsters were with the Bruins’ taxi squad in Buffalo.
- With Linus Ullmark out, the Buffalo Sabres are turning to top prospect Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, who has been recalled to the active roster. Michael Houser has been sent to the taxi squad to make room.
