AHL Shuffle: 03/12/22

March 12, 2022 at 10:50 am CDT | by Brian La Rose Leave a Comment

It’s another busy Saturday in the NHL with 20 teams set to play so there should be plenty of roster movement throughout the day.  We’ll keep track of those moves here.

Atlantic Division

  • The Red Wings announced that they’ve recalled defenseman Luke Witkowski from Grand Rapids of the AHL. The 31-year-old has seven points and 62 penalty minutes in 43 games with the Griffins.  He has been used on the wing in his last few NHL stints and with Robby Fabbri (injury) and Tyler Bertuzzi (unable to cross the border) unavailable for the next three games, it’s likely that Witkowski will have to play up front if he’s going to see his first NHL action since 2019-20.

Metropolitan Division

  • The Hurricanes have sent goaltender Alex Lyon to Chicago of the AHL, per a team release. The 29-year-old has been shuffled back and forth in recent days with Frederik Andersen dealing with an undisclosed injury, one that it appears he’s ready to return from.  Lyon has played in two games with Carolina this season but has spent most of the campaign with the Wolves, posting a league-leading 2.14 GAA in 23 games.
  • The Pittsburgh Penguins announced that they have recalled forward Radim Zohorna from the AHL’s Scranton-Wilkes Barre Penguins, and have assigned forward Valtteri Puustinen to Scranton. This will not be Zohorna’s first trip to the NHL this season, as he already has two points in eight games, last playing for Pittsburgh back on February 10th. Despite being sent down, Pusstinen is an intriguing name for Pittsburgh. The 22-year-old, who was taken in the 7th round by Pittsburgh in 2019, made his NHL debut Friday night, tallying an assist, and has 34 points over 53 games with Scranton this season.

Central Division

  • The Wild announced (Twitter link) that they’ve returned defenseman Calen Addison back to Iowa of the AHL. The 21-year-old was brought up three weeks ago and got into six games with Minnesota in that stretch, averaging just under 14 minutes.  However, with eight blueliners on the active roster, they’ve decided that playing top minutes in the minors makes more sense for Addison at this time.
  • The Stars announced (Twitter link) that they’ve assigned winger Riley Tufte to Texas of the AHL while recalling goaltender Adam Scheel.  Tufte has been seeing regular action on the fourth line as of late but with Braden Holtby dealing with a lower-body injury, they needed to clear a roster spot and enough cap space to bring Scheel up to serve as Jake Oettinger’s backup tonight.  Tufte makes more than their other waiver-exempt forwards so he had to be the one to go down.

Pacific Division

  • The Kings announced (Twitter link) that they’ve recalled defenseman Christian Wolanin from AHL Ontario.  The 26-year-old started off the season in the NHL but has spent most of the year with the Reign where he has 11 assists in 24 games.  To make room for Wolanin on the roster, the team placed winger Andreas Athanasiou on IR retroactive to March 10th.
  • The Golden Knights have sent blueliner Daniil Miromanov back to Henderson of the AHL per a team announcement (Twitter link).  The 24-year-old was recalled on Monday as injury insurance but hasn’t played since then.  Miromanov has played in seven games with Vegas this season plus 41 with the Silver Knights where he has six goals and 24 assists.
  • The Sharks have returned goaltender Alex Stalock to San Jose of the AHL, per the AHL’s transactions log.  The veteran was acquired from Edmonton to serve as goalie depth with both Adin Hill and James Reimer injured.  Hill is set to return tonight so Stalock will head to the Barracuda.  The 34-year-old was expected to miss the entire season due to a heart condition but returned to action last month.

This post will be updated throughout the day.
