The Colorado Avalanche announced last night that forward Rocco Grimaldi and defenseman Duncan Seimens have been recalled from the San Antonio Rampage.
Grimaldi’s call-up is his third to Colorado this season. The 5-foot-6, 180-pound forward has tallied 24 points (13g/11a) in 40 games with the Rampage this season, while registering three points (1g/2a) in six games with Colorado.
The young winger has been called up in an attempt to spark an AValanche offense that has struggled recently. While Grimaldi brings some speed and puck skill to the lineup, he has also been a defensive liability.
