Milwaukee Admirals News Release
Milwaukee, WI-- Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile announced today that the club has assigned forward Chris Mueller and reassigned forward Matt Halischuk to Milwaukee.
Halischuk played his first five games as a Predator during the club's just completed six-game road trip, posting three points (1g-2a) and a +3 rating while logging 10:08 per game. The Toronto, Ont., native, acquired from New Jersey in the offseason, made his Nashville debut on Jan. 16 at Chicago, then recorded his first goal with the team at Phoenix two nights later. Halischuk notched his first career two-point/assist performance last Thursday in the Predators' 5-1 victory at Colorado. The 6-0, 185-pound winger has 16 points (9g-7a) in 29 games for the Admirals in 2010-11.
Mueller signed a one-year contract with the Predators on Dec. 27 and has played in 13 of the club's 15 games since that date, posting three assists while averaging 8:31 of ice time. He notched his first career NHL point/assist on Jan. 16 at Chicago and recorded his first multi-point/assist outing the next game, a 5-2 victory at Phoenix. The West Seneca, N.Y., native returns to Milwaukee where he is ranked second on the team in goals (12), and third in points (20).
