Hurricanes Recall Goaltender from AHL
The Carolina Hurricanes have announced that they have recalled netminder Yaniv Perets from the Chicago Wolves of the AHL.
Perets, 24, has a 1-2-0 record in three AHL games this year along with a 0.825 save percentage and a 3.67 goals against average.
With Frederik Andersen and Pyotr Kochetkov both sidelined, the Canes had just a single goaltender, Spencer Martin, for this weekend's back-to-back against the Ottawa Senators and St. Louis Blues so they needed to call up someone.
There's a good chance that Martin winds up playing both games, but Hurricanes coach Rod Brind'Amour also said that Kochetkov is truly day-to-day, meaning he still could be ready by as early as tomorrow or the next day.
