Joel Nystrom News: Called up by Carolina

Nystrom was recalled from AHL Chicago on Monday.

Nystrom was sent to the AHL on Dec. 14, but he'll rejoin the NHL club just before the holiday break after Jaccob Slavin (upper body) was placed on injured reserve. Nystrom has made 24 appearances for the Hurricanes this year, racking up five assists, 14 blocked shots, six hits and four PIM while averaging 15:56 of ice time.
