CLEVELAND - The AHL's defending Calder Cup Champions, the Cleveland Monsters, proudly powered by Constellation, announced Sunday that defenseman Scott Harrington was recalled by the NHL's Columbus Blue Jackets from a conditioning assignment to Cleveland. Harrington logged a +1 rating and four shots on goal in two appearances during the Monsters' season-opening series at The Q, a 2-1 home win over the Rockford IceHogs on Friday and a 3-1 victory over Rockford on Saturday.

A 6'2", 219 lb. left-handed blue-liner from Kingston, ON, Harrington registered 0-1-1 with eight penalty minutes in 25 NHL appearances for the Pittsburgh Penguins and Toronto Maple Leafs spanning parts of the past two seasons.

Acquired by Columbus via trade in exchange for forward Kerby Rychel on June 25, 2016, Harrington was selected by Pittsburgh in the second round (54th overall) of the 2011 NHL Entry Draft. Prior to his professional career, Harrington supplied 13-68-81 with 129 penalty minutes and a +58 rating in 216 OHL appearances for the London Knights spanning four seasons from 2009-13.
