The reason behind Edström’s promotion today hasn’t been explained just yet, but the reason he and Rempe were assigned to the Wolf Pack earlier in the month was definitely a combination of cap purposes and ensuring they would be eligible for the AHL playoffs. With the Rangers falling apart in the second half of the game last night, and a few momentum changing mistakes being committed by Jonny Brodzinski, a lot of folks are theorizing this is to allow another player an opportunity and to sit Brodzinski.
