The Carolina Hurricanes have called up Joel Nystrom from AHL Chicago while placing Jaccob Slavin on injured reserve due to an upper-body injury. Slavin, who has struggled with lower-body issues this season, has only played five games and is expected to miss more time. Nystrom, recently signed to a four-year extension, has shown promise despite limited stats, and the organization remains optimistic about his future. Despite Slavin’s absence, the Hurricanes maintain a strong 22-10-3 record, sitting fourth in the league.
