Addison recorded an assist in Monday's 4-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
Addison entered the lineup with Carson Soucy (undisclosed) out of action Monday. The 21-year-old Addison then delivered his first career point when he set up Jordan Greenway's first-period tally, which stood as the game-winning goal. It's unclear how long Addison will stick in the lineup -- he spent most of 2020-21 in the minors with 22 points in 31 contests for AHL Iowa.

The Wild reassigned Addison to AHL Iowa on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The 20-year-old got his first taste of NHL action this past week, recording no points, four shots and two hits across 18:31 of average ice time in three games. This news is likely evidence that Carson Soucy, who just got out of the COVID-19 protocol Thursday, is nearing a return to action. Addison will head back to the minors, where he's racked up three assists and a plus-5 rating in three games this year.

EDGE Analysis
Addison made his NHL debut in Tuesday's game against the Kings, supplying two shots, a block and a minus-1 rating across 19:41 of ice time. The 20-year-old could have another shot to suit up with the active roster in Thursday's game against the Ducks.

Addison will be promoted from the taxi squad to play in Tuesday's game versus the Kings, Jessi Pierce of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Addison will make his NHL debut Tuesday. The 20-year-old was a WHL phenom, coming close to a point-per-game pace over his final three seasons in Canadian juniors. Addison has fit right in with AHL Iowa this year as well, recording three assists over three games. However, his promotion is a combination of necessity and merit, as the Wild still have four defensemen in COVID-19 protocol.

The Wild promoted Addison to the taxi squad via AHL Iowa on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The 20-year-old began the season in the minors, where he's recorded three assists and a plus-5 rating through three games. Addison was a key trade piece last season from Pittsburgh, as he figures to be a major player in the future of the franchise. The Wild currently have five players residing in the league's COVID-19 protocol, so Addison's NHL debut could be on tap shortly.

Addison was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Addison was a nice trade asset acquired in the Jason Zucker trade with Pittsburgh last season, but the youngster will begin the 2021 season with AHL Iowa. The 20-year-old will be a key piece of the future for the Wild, as he racked up 206 points across 241 games in his three-year career in the WHL. Expect Addison to spend the majority of his time in the AHL for the upcoming season as he continues to develop.

Addison was traded along with Alex Galchenyuk and a 2020 first-round pick to Minnesota via the Penguins on Monday in exchange for Jason Zucker, Bob McKenzie of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 19-year-old will be a key piece in the future for the Wild, as he's enjoyed an illustrious career in the WHL. With Lethbridge, Addison has racked up 206 career points across 241 games in his three-year career in the league. The No. 53 overall pick in the 2018 draft could ascend to AHL Iowa following his junior season following the 2019-20 campaign.

Addison picked up a goal and an assist in WHL Lethbridge's 4-3 overtime loss to Winnipeg on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The defenseman finished with a game-high seven shots on goal. Addison is a talented offensive rearguard, but his overall play remains a work in progress. He's neither a big player (5-foot-10) nor a great skater, so the former No. 53 overall selection (2018) is going to have to generate offense in order to have a successful pro career. Addison signed his entry-level contract with Pittsburgh this past April. For the season, Addison has four goals and 11 points in 15 games for Lethbridge.
