Per team release...
RALEIGH, NC – Jim Rutherford, President and General
Manager of the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes, today announced
that the team has recalled goaltender Cam Ward from the Charlotte Checkers
of the American Hockey League (AHL).
Ward, 29, was 1-1 with a 2.02 goals-against average and .937
save percentage in two AHL games for the Checkers during his conditioning
stint.
The Saskatoon, Sask., native has missed the Hurricanes’ last
14 games due to a lower-body injury and the conditioning assignment. Prior to
the injury, Ward (6’1”, 185 lbs.) had posted a 6-7-5 record, a 3.15
goals-against average and an .895 save percentage in 19 games with Carolina
this season.
He is the Hurricanes franchise’s all-time leader in games
played by a goaltender (450), wins (220) and shutouts (21). The Hurricanes
drafted Ward in the first round, 25th overall, in the 2002 NHL Entry Draft.
