Koivula was reassigned to AHL Bridgeport on Wednesday, Stefen Rosner of NYI Hockey Now reports.

EDGE Analysis

Koivula has one assist through five NHL contests this season. The 24-year-old could be involved in a paper move here, but it's possible he stays in the minors if Pierre Engvall (not injury related) and Jean-Gabriel Pageau (upper body) are both cleared to play Saturday versus the Red Wings.
