If you havent heard, the Florida Panthers game this afternoon against the Minnesota Wild in St. Paul has been postponed, as have the following tilts against the Chicago Blackhawks and Nashville Predators.
In response, the Cats have assigned forwards Grigori Denisenko, Aleksi Heponiemi and Cole Schwindt, and defensemen Matt Kiersted and Chase Priskie to the AHL’s Charlotte Checkers.
The Checkers have a pair of home games this weekend against the Bridgeport Islanders at Bojangles’ Coliseum before breaking for the holidays until a December 31 contest in Texas against the Stars.
