Wells penned a professional tryout agreement with the Mammoth on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Back with Utah on a PTO for the second straight year, Wells will look to have a strong training camp after posting a 3-3-1 record, .900 save percentage and 2.89 GAA over 10 regular-season outings with AHL Tucson in 2024-25. The 2016 fifth-round pick has appeared in just one NHL game with Chicago during the 2022-23 campaign.

Wells and Max Domi were traded from the Blackhawks to the Stars on Thursday in exchange for Anton Khudobin and a 2025 second-round pick.
EDGE Analysis
Wells made his NHL debut in a relief appearance with the Blackhawks earlier this season. The 25-year-old Wells and the veteran Khudobin will essentially swap spots with the clubs' respective minor-league squads.

Wells was placed on waivers Monday, TSN's Chris Johnston reports.
EDGE Analysis

Wells made his NHL debut Saturday in relief in a 4-0 loss to Winnipeg. He stopped 12 of 13 shots.
EDGE Analysis
Arvid Soderblom (undisclosed) didn't return after two periods. Nate Schmidt smoked a shot past Wells on the power play early in the third. Chicago doesn't play again until Thursday, so it remains to be seen if Wells will need to start should Soderblom still be sidelined.

Wells penned a one-year, two-way contract with Chicago on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Wells has played three games on a minor-league deal for AHL Rockford this season in which he is 1-1-0 with a .862 save percentage and 4.27 GAA. With Alex Stalock (concussion) in doubt, the Hawks found themselves desperately short of NHL-eligible netminders, forcing them to sign Wells to a two-way deal that would allow him to be called up to Chicago.

Wells was traded by the Oilers to the Hurricanes on Wednesday in exchange for future considerations.
EDGE Analysis
Wells has been an AHL and ECHL fixture since 2018-19 and has yet to see NHL ice. He didn't feature in any game action in 2020-21, though, since he was included on the Oilers' taxi squad instead of suiting up for AHL Bakersfield. In 19 AHL appearances, Wells owns a 3.16 GAA and .898 save percentage.
