Mazanec was traded along with draft picks from Vancouver to Tampa Bay in exchange for J.T. Miller on Saturday, reports Bob McKenzie of TSN.ca.

EDGE Analysis

Mazanec is 27 and he's moved a lot in the last few months -- he had only arrived in Vancouver in February following a trade with Nashville. He did not dress for the Canucks. Mazanec could compete for the backup role in Tampa Bay, but that's all. The number one seat in Lightning land is locked up solid with Andrei Vasilevskiy.

Mazanec was reassigned to AHL Utica on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old netminder has not appeared in an NHL game to this point in the season but has spent time at the top level, as a member of both the Rangers and Canucks. Mazanec, in 20 appearances with AHL Hartford, has posted a 7-8-3 record in 2018-19, to go along with a 3.01 GAA and .903 save percentage.

Mazanec's visa issues have been resolved and he'll be in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Ducks, John Shannon of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Canucks are kicking off their road trip with back-to-back games beginning Wednesday versus the Ducks. They'll likely need to lean on Mazanec in the net for one of those contests, and he's expected to make his first start since the 2016-17 in Anaheim. That will be a good way to ease the 27-year-old back into NHL action since the Ducks have lost seven straight games and scored just eight goals in the process.

The Canucks are working to get Mazanec's immigration paperwork before Wednesday's road game versus the Ducks, Bob McKenzie of TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vancouver acquired Mazanec via trade from the Rangers on Tuesday. If the Canucks are able to get his papers in order in time, they're expected to give Mazanec his first NHL start since the 2016-17 season. It'll be a good way to ease back into NHL action, as the Ducks have lost seven straight games and scored just eight goals in that span.

The Rangers traded Mazanec to the Canucks in exchange for a 2020 seventh-round draft pick, John Shannon of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mazanec is expected to join the Canucks on the road trip to serve as the backup until Thatcher Demko (knee) returns. If Jacob Markstrom (lower body) is available Wednesday against the Ducks, Michael DiPietro will likely be headed back to the minors for continued development

Mazanec was reassigned to AHL Hartford on Wednesday, TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mazanec trades places on the organizational depth chart with Dustin Tokarski, presumably in an effort to give the former a long look during the NHL's All-Star break and the corresponding bye week. Mazanec is 7-6-2 with a 3.15 GAA and .895 save percentage over 15 games for the AHL's Wolfpack this season, suggesting he still needs to refine his game in the lower ranks.

The Rangers recalled Mazanec from AHL Hartford on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The Rangers sent Alexander Georgiev down to the minors in a corresponding move in order to get him some work during the NHL's upcoming All-Star break, which means Mazanec will almost certainly be returned to Hartford prior to New York's Jan. 29 matchup with Philadelphia.

Mazanec was sent down to AHL Hartford on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old netminder, this season, has a record of 3-4-2 to go along with a 3.11 GAA and a .889 save percentage in nine minor-league starts. Mazanec has yet to play an NHL game in 2018-19.

Mazanec was recalled from AHL Hartford on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Mazanec's promotion likely has more to do with getting Alexandar Georgiev some playing time than it is a reward for Mazanec's play in the minors -- especially considering he is 3-4-2 with a .889 save percentage with the Wolf Pack. Hartford is in action Wednesday against Bridgeport, a game in which Georgiev figures to get the start. Both netminders will likely be flopped ahead of the Rangers' clash with the Islanders on Thursday.

Mazanec was reassigned to the minors Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The move to flip Mazanec and Alexandar Georgiev was meant to get the younger Georgiev some game action in the minors -- so the decision to flip the netminders was expected to occur at some point. Mazanec returns to the Wolf Pack, for whom he is 2-2-0 with a 3.53 GAA while splitting time with Dustin Tokarski.
