It’s a new week in the NHL, but an off-day for most teams. The league is almost entirely quiet tonight, with only a game between the Winnipeg Jets and Montreal Canadiens on the docket. Despite that, some teams may be making some changes to the roster, given the condensed schedule over the final few weeks. As always, we’ll keep track of all the minor league shuffling right here.
Atlantic Division
Metropolitan Division
- The Pittsburgh Penguins have assigned Anthony Angello and Radim Zohorna to the AHL, which certainly could suggest that Brock McGinn is close to a return from long-term injured reserve. Despite having no roster size limits, the team still does need to be cap compliant, something that would now be possible even if they activate McGinn.
Central Divison
- The Jets have recalled Mikey Eyssimont from the AHL, following the injury to Mark Scheifele last night. The star forward will not play this evening, though a more detailed timeline has not yet been released. Eyssimont, 25, has not yet made an appearance at the NHL level, but has 15 goals and 35 points in 53 games with the Manitoba Moose.
- The Nashville Predators have returned Connor Ingram to the AHL, after he served as the backup yesterday. Juuse Saros, who he replaced, missed the game with a non-COVID illness. Ingram, 25, made his NHL debut this season and posted a .906 save percentage in two appearances.
- The Arizona Coyotes have assigned Jan Jenik to the AHL, after he played in another handful of games recently. The 21-year-old forward has two goals in ten appearances this season.
