Storm Advisory 11/1/18: NHL News, Rumors, Links and Daily Roundup; Di Giuseppe reassigned

Just before the team took off for Arizona on Thursday afternoon, the Hurricanes reassigned Phil Di Giuseppe to the Charlotte Checkers. Di Giuseppe, who cleared waivers on October 18 but remained with the team at the time, has served as the 13th forward for all but two games this season.

Di Giuseppe’s roster spot was effectively filled by Fleury when the defenseman was recalled yesterday, and the Canes head west with an extra defenseman and goalie but no extra forwards.

The release from the team is below.
