After Calvin de Haan exited Sunday’s contest with an upper-body injury, the Hurricanes have recalled Haydn Fleury from Charlotte on an emergency basis.
The blue liner has 10 points (2g, 8a) in 28 games for the Checkers this season, including five helpers in the last four games. Fleury returns to Carolina where he has logged 17 games this season, picking up an assist along the way.
The Checkers, who were the first team in the AHL to clinch a spot in the Calder Cup Playoffs, return to Charlotte for their final home stand this week starting Tuesday against the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. They need just one point to clinch the Atlantic Division title.
