Milwaukee, WI-Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile announced today that the club has recalled forward Andreas Thuresson from Milwaukee (AHL). In addition, the Admirals have recalled right wing Chris Mueller from the Cincinnati Cyclones of the ECHL.Thuresson has five points in nine games for the Admirals in 2009-10, and scored the game-winning goal in Milwaukee's 2-1 victory against Rockford last night. The Kristianstad, Sweden native notched 29 points (14g-15a) in 74 games for Milwaukee in 2008-09, and 18 points (11g-7a) in 77 contests as the American Hockey League's youngest player in 2007-08. Nashville's seventh choice, 144th overall (fifth round), in the 2007 Entry Draft has yet to appear in an NHL contest.
Mueller has four goals and an assist in five games with the Cylones so far this season. In 2008-09 the West Seneca, NY native posted 16 points (5g-11a) in 59 games with the Lake Erie Monsters.
The Admirals travel to Rockford on Saturday night before returning back to the Bradley Center on Wednesday, November 4, when Chris Chelios and the Chicago Wolves come to town for a 7:00 pm game.
