Overview
- The club announced the three recalls from Laval less than an hour after the defeat to Tampa Bay.
- Fowler earns his first NHL call-up after a 10-5-0 start with Laval with a .919 save percentage and 2.09 GAA, following a .932 mark over 74 NCAA games at Boston College.
- Against the Lightning, Jakub Dobes allowed three goals on 14 shots before being pulled and Samuel Montembeault gave up three on 13 in relief.
- Dobes and Montembeault have combined for an 88.52 save percentage at five-on-five this season, one of the lowest figures in the league, according to reports.
- The recalls provide lineup options for games in Pittsburgh and New York, and coverage suggests some regulars could be scratched to make room.
