10:00 p.m.: Shortly after their overtime loss to the Oilers, the Hurricanes announced they’ve reassigned Nadeau back to AHL Chicago. He did not play in tonight’s contest.
2:33 p.m.: The Hurricanes have made a pair of roster moves heading into tonight’s game against Edmonton. The team announced that they have recalled winger Bradly Nadeau from AHL Chicago. To make room for him on the roster, defenseman Gavin Bayreuther has been returned to the Wolves.
It’s the second recall of the season for Nadeau. The 20-year-old got into six games in his first stint, picking up his first career goal while averaging 11:30 per game. It’s already the third straight year that Nadeau has received NHL action as he got into one game in 2023-24 after being drafted 30th overall and made two appearances with them last season.
Nadeau has been quite productive in his limited action with the Wolves this season, picking up three goals and four assists. That comes on the heels of an impressive rookie showing in 2024-25 where he had 32 goals and 26 assists in 64 games with Chicago. If he gets into the lineup again on this recall, it’s likely that his minutes will be managed in a bottom-six role as it was in his first stint.
As for Bayreuther, the 31-year-old didn’t see any game action with Carolina after being recalled last weekend. He has three goals and three assists in nine AHL contests with the Wolves and has 122 career NHL outings under his belt with a total of 28 points. He returned to North America this season after playing with Lausanne in Switzerland in 2024-25.
