Brandon Pirri’s brief and uneventful stint in the American Hockey League is over.
The 27-year-old forward, who was sent down by the Golden Knights on Sunday, was back at City National Arena for practice Thursday ahead of Vegas’ game with the Colorado Avalanche.

The Knights demoted Pirri, who has three goals and an assist in three games, over their three-holiday break so he would stop accruing days on their NHL roster.
