RALEIGH, NC - Jim Rutherford, President and General Manager of the National Hockey League's Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has recalled forward Zac Dalpe from the Charlotte Checkers of the American Hockey League (AHL). Rutherford also announced that forward Drayson Bowman has been reassigned to Charlotte.

Dalpe, 22, was assigned to Charlotte on Nov. 2, and played in two games during the weekend for the Checkers. The Paris, Ont., native was assigned to Charlotte after he missed seven Hurricanes games recovering from a lower-body injury sustained on Oct. 14 at Buffalo. Dalpe (6'1", 195 lbs.) has played in five NHL games this season without registering a point. Carolina drafted Dalpe in the second round, 45th overall, in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft.

The Carolina Hurricanes begin a two-game road trip on Tuesday against the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center (7:30 p.m. ET, Versus HD, Hurricanes Radio Network). The Hurricanes will return to the RBC Center to host the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday, Nov. 12.
