The Dallas Stars announced this afternoon that Curtis McKenzie has been assigned to the Texas Stars. McKenzie started the season with Texas but was recalled to Dallas almost immediately to fill injury gaps. McKenzie was injured himself and spent the last few weeks on the injured reserve in the NHL. With his return to health and the return to health of Travis Moen and Patrick Eaves, McKenzie can now safely be assigned to the AHL.
With the assignment, Texas has no remaining players called up to the NHL.
Here's the release:
Dallas Stars General Manager Jim Nill announced today that the team has reassigned forward Curtis McKenzie to the Texas Stars, Dallas' top development affiliate in the American Hockey League (AHL).
