Altshuller was sent down to AHL Charlotte on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Initially, the thought was that Altshuller would stick around with Eddie Lack out indefinitely due to a concussion, but at least for now, he heads back to the minors with veteran Michael Leighton getting the call-up. Altshuller has yet to make his NHL debut.

Altshuller was called up from AHL Charlotte on Tuesday, Chip Alexander of the Raleigh News & Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Altshuller will fill in as the backup for Cam Ward as Eddie Lack (illness) remains out of the lineup. The 22-year-old Altshuller has played in a combined 12 games in the ECHL and AHL this year in which he logged a 6-2-1 record. Even if Lack is out long-term, Altshuller is unlikely to get a lot of NHL ice time this year, severely limiting his fantasy value.

Altshuller was called up from AHL Charlotte on Saturday, TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Hurricanes now have three goalies on the active roster, presumably in an effort to preserve the longevity of starter Cam Ward, who has already started 21 of a possible 27 games this season. Altschuller has been terrific in six appearances with the Florida Everblades of the ECHL this season (4-0-2, 1.80 GAA), though he wasn't nearly as efficient in a cup of coffee with the AHL's Checkers, posting a 3.02 GAA over a pair of contests. He has yet to make his NHL debut.

Altshuller has been reassigned to the Florida Everblades of the ECHL, Chip Alexander of the Raleigh News & Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Altshuller was called up from AHL Charlotte on Tuesday to afford Cam Ward (leg) more time to recover. However, it was Eddie Lack who picked up 60 minutes between the posts in Tuesday's win over the Jets. Altshuller is still looking to make his NHL debut, and now the big backstop curiously heads to the ECHL, a mid-level professional league, where he's excelled with a 10-3-0 record, 1.58 GAA and .941 save percentage.

Altshuller was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Tuesday, Canes post-game host Mike Maniscalco reports.

EDGE Analysis

Altshuller was brought up to serve as the back-up while regular netminder Cam Ward (leg) works his way back from injury. Whether or not the 21-year-old gets any game action will largely depend on Ward's recovery time, but a return to the AHL without hitting the ice seems likely. In his time in the minors, the young goalie has been adequate, as he's logged a 2.55 GAA and registered nine wins in 19 outings.

Altshuller was reassigned to the Charlotte Checkers of the AHL on Tuesday, the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

He had been filling in for Cam Ward who was out with a concussion, but Ward was activated from injured reserve on Tuesday, so Altshuller was reassigned as a corresponding move. He'll continue to offer organizational goalie depth.

Altshuller was recalled by the Hurricanes on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Altshuller began the season in the ECHL, but success resulted in a bump to the AHL. The 21-year-old continued to post positive results between the pipes at that level (currently holding a 9-1-1 records with a 1.71 GAA and .941 save percentage), and the placement of Cam Ward on injured reserve has earned him a promotion to the parent club. Altshuller will serve as the backup behind Eddie Lack for the time being, but a start would represent his NHL debut.
