The Carolina Hurricanes announced they have recalled forward Justin Robidas from their AHL affiliate Chicago Wolves.
Robidas is fourth in AHL rookie scoring with 17 goals and 31 assists for 48 points in 65 games this season.
The 22-year-old continues to work his way up the professional ranks after recording 12 goals and 27 points in 32 games with the ECHL’s Norfolk Admirals last season.
Originally a fifth round pick of the Hurricanes in 2021, Robidas is a crafty playmaker who won a QMJHL and Memorial Cup Championship with the Quebec Remparts in 2023.
Son of long time NHL defenseman Stephane Robidas, Justin’s first chance to make his NHL debut comes Apr. 4 in what will likely be a fiery game against the Washington Capitals.
This move comes as Hurricanes forwards Jordan Staal and Andrei Svechnikov are questionable with injuries.
