Poturalski picked up a power-play assist in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Red Wings. - Playing in only his third career NHL game and first since 2016-17, the 27-year-old recorded his first career point on the night's opening tally, as his blast from the top of the faceoff circle got stopped by Alex Nedeljkovic only for Nino Niederreiter to bang home the rebound. Poturalski was an emergency call-up due to a wave of absences in Carolina's forward ranks due to COVID-19, but he was leading the team's AHL affiliate in scoring at the time of his promotion. If he sees consistent power-play time, he could have some short-term fantasy value despite his skimpy resume at the top level. |

Poturalski will join the Hurricanes as an emergency recall ahead of Thursday's game against the Red Wings. - Poturalski pauses his AHL campaign with the Wolves as the points leader of that minor-league squad by a wide margin. He's dialed in 12 goals -- including six on the power play -- and 22 assists through 23 games. While he's a fine depth option for the parent club, Poturalski is 27 years old and he's long since exhausted his NHL prospect status. A native of New York, Poturalski made his debut with the Hurricanes in 2016-17, but he hasn't appeared in a top-level game since then. Still, he might be needed Thursday since several Hurricanes forwards are either injured or in COVID-19 protocol. |
