Hurricanes Recall Forward Andreas Nodl

Andreas Nodl, who was put through waivers and assigned to the Charlotte Checkers before the season, was recalled Wednesday by the Carolina Hurricanes.

After a five-game stint with the AHL's Charlotte Checkers, forward Andrea Nodl was recalled to the Carolina Hurricanes Wednesday. Nodl had four points with the Checkers.

Due to the NHL CBA's new rules that eliminated re-entry waivers, Nodl could not be claimed before being recalled. The Hurricanes claimed Nodl off waivers from Philadelphia last November, and the 25-year-old Austrian had three goals and four assists in 48 games with Carolina in 2011-12.

Here is the release from the team.

RALEIGH, NC – Jim Rutherford, President and General Manager of the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has recalled forward Andreas Nodl from the Charlotte Checkers of the American Hockey League (AHL). Nodl will join the Hurricanes for the team’s practice on Wednesday at PNC Arena.

Nodl, 25, was assigned to Charlotte on Jan. 17, and recorded a goal and three assists (4 points) in five games with Carolina’s top minor-league affiliate.

He earned seven points (3g, 4a) in 48 games with the Hurricanes after being acquired on waivers from Philadelphia on Nov. 29, 2011. Philadelphia’s second-round selection in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft, Nodl (6’1", 196 lbs.) has totaled 35 points (15g, 20a) in 175 career NHL games with the Flyers and Hurricanes.
