Ontario (AHL) continued to add to their player depth on Monday as they signed Glenn Gawdin to a two-year, two-way contract. The 27-year-old has appeared in 13 career NHL games across four seasons but spent the vast majority of 2023-24 with San Diego (AHL) and had 22 goals and 55 points in 70 games played.
Gawdin made his season debut on Thursday but will report back to San Diego on Friday. His demotion makes remove for the arrival of the recently acquired Ben Meyers.
With Adam Henrique and Sam Carrick traded to the Edmonton Oilers, the Ducks have recalled Gawdin and Pavol Regenda from the San Diego Gulls of the AHL. Gawdin has 40 points (17G / 23A) in 50 games with San Diego.
Gawdin will get his first call up to Anaheim after collecting six points (3G/3A) in seven games with San Diego of the AHL. The 25-year-old had one assist through nine career games, all played with the Calgary Flames.
Gawdin was originally a fourth-round pick of the Blues in 2015 but he turned pro with the Flames in 2019. He's only appeared in nine NHL games to-date but had a solid 2022 season in the AHL, scoring 15 goals with 35 assists (50 points) in 62 games with Stockton. The one-way contract suggests he could make the NHL roster to open 2022-23.
