Wallmark signed a two-year contract with the Hurricanes on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallmark's new contract is a two-way deal in 2018-19 and a one-way deal in 2019-20, which suggests the Hurricanes are hopeful he'll develop into a regular contributor at the NHL level over the next two seasons. The 2014 fourth-round pick was highly productive in the minors last campaign, racking up 17 goals and 55 points in 45 games, but he struggled to contribute with the big club, potting just one goal in 11 games.

Wallmark was extended a qualifying offer from the Hurricanes on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Despite just one goal and three points in 19 career NHL games, Wallmark racked up 41 goals and 101 points over the last two years with AHL Charlotte. The Swedish forward will turn 23 years old before the start of the regular season and should have a decent shot at cracking the NHL squad.

Wallmark was sent back to AHL Charlotte on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallmark saw a season-high 14:21 of ice time during Tuesday's game against the Wild, but the Hurricanes don't appear to be impressed with what they saw. The 2014 fourth-round pick will once again stew in the AHL ranks -- where he owns 36 points in 34 games -- awaiting his next opportunity to impress the big-league brass.

Wallmark was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallmark has compiled an impressive campaign with the Checkers this season, notching 36 points (13 goals, 23 assists) and a plus-11 rating over 34 contests. He's yet to secure a permanent spot with the Hurricanes, but he may receive another opportunity to draw in following the latest recall. The 22-year-old could also see an extended run as the season winds down should the Hurricanes fall out of playoff contention.

Wallmark was returned to AHL Charlotte on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallmark's reassignment with the Checkers could be simply to keep him game ready while the Canes are off until Friday's clash with Pittsburgh. The center's minutes were limited versus the Devils on Sunday (4:28), but with 36 points in 34 minor-league contests, the 22-year-old should have shown enough potential to keep getting looks at a spot in Carolina's lineup.

Wallmark was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallmark potted his first career NHL goal earlier this season against the Blues, but the fourth-round pick has earned the right at another chance in the NHL following an explosive campaign with Charlotte. Through 34 games with the Checkers, the 22-year-old Swede has racked up 36 points (13 goals, 23 assists) and a plus-11 rating. He has yet to receive consistent ice time at the top level, but sustained success in the AHL could eventually force the Hurricanes to give him an extended look.

Wallmark was sent to AHL Charlotte on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The Swede only played in one contest during his most recent stint in the NHL, logging 10:01 of ice time while skating with the third line. Wallmark has been extremely productive in the minors the last two seasons totaling 69 points (31 goals, 38 assists) in 87 games, and will likely remain on the shortlist if Carolina is in need of a depth forward.

The Hurricanes recalled Wallmark from AHL Charlotte on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallmark has been highly productive in the minors this campaign, racking up seven goals and 23 points in 20 games. He'll hope to make his third appearance of the season with the Hurricanes on Friday against the Capitals.

Wallmark (groin) was reassigned to AHL Charlotte on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallmark will rejoin the Checkers after a five-game stint with the Hurricanes, in which he saw action in a pair of contests. In his two outings, the Swede recorded his first NHL goal, along with two shots, five hits and a minus-1 rating. Barring additional injuries, the center figures to spend the rest of the year in the minors. Per NHL rules, Wallmark must have been cleared by the team's medical staff prior to being sent down.

Wallmark (groin) will sit out of Saturday's game against the Bruins, Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wallmark will miss his second straight game since being called up Dec. 29. In his two appearances this season, Wallmark has one goal and five hits, and his next chance to slot into the lineup will be Tuesday against the Lightning.
