The Nashville Predators have recalled forward Reid Schaefer from their American Hockey League affiliate, the Milwaukee Admirals.
The 21-year-old winger has collected 14 points in 15 games this season with Milwaukee, showing consistent offensive development. Schaefer, who was drafted in the first round of the 2022 NHL Draft, has yet to appear in an NHL game.
“Reid continues to progress well at the AHL level and has earned this opportunity,” said the Predators’ management in a club release.
With his recall, Schaefer will join the Predators’ main roster as the team continues its midseason adjustments.
