EDGE Analysis

Attard is back up on the roster after being waived by the team Sunday, and he could be in action either Tuesday or Wednesday against the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Attard provided seven goals and 17 points in 66 AHL regular-season games between Lehigh Valley and Bakersfield in 2024-25. The 26-year-old blueliner will likely spend most of 2025-26 at the minor-league level.
