The Blue Jackets returned Svozil to AHL Cleveland on Saturday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Svozil garnered an assist in a 7-3 loss to Pittsburgh on Friday after being recalled from the minors to play in Columbus' final preseason game. The 21-year-old blueliner had 23 points across 57 regular-season AHL contests in 2023-24.

Svozil was promoted from AHL Cleveland on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Svozil logged two NHL games for the Jackets last year in which he tallied one assist, three shots and one hit while averaging 20:07 of ice time. The 21-year-old blueliner has shown an offensive touch in the minors, racking up 23 points in 57 regular-season games last year, but he will need to bring it with him to the NHL level.

Svozil was reassigned to AHL Cleveland on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Svozil was recalled by the Blue Jackets on Tuesday but will return to the AHL club a day later. He's appeared in just two regular-season NHL games since being selected by Columbus in the third round of the 2021 NHL Draft.

EDGE Analysis

Svozil picked up his first NHL point in his debut Thursday against the Penguins and had three shots on goal over Columbus' final two games of the season. Svozil will gain some valuable playoff experience in the AHL after scoring 11 times and adding 67 assists in 56 WHL contests with Regina.

Svozil was called up from WHL Regina on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Svozil finished the WHL 2022-23 campaign with 11 goals and 78 points in 56 contests with Regina. He also contributed four goals and 13 points in seven playoff games. Svozil might make his NHL debut Thursday versus Pittsburgh or Friday against Buffalo.

Svozil signed a three-year, entry-level contract with Columbus on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Svozil managed just eight points in 71 games for Czech club Brno Kometa over the past two seasons, so the Jackets clearly didn't draft him in the third round of the 2021 NHL Draft for his offensive upside. The 18-year-old blueliner will likely spend another year overseas but probably shouldn't be utilized by fantasy players even if he does crack the 23-man roster.
