Asplund has been recalled from Charlotte (AHL) on Wednesday.

After spending the last two seasons exclusively in the NHL, splitting time between the Buffalo Sabres and Nashville Predators, Asplund could get his first crack at an NHL game this season after being recalled by the Panthers. In 33 games with the Charlotte Checkers of the AHL, Asplund has 19 points (4G / 15A) and 12 penalty minutes.

The Panthers signed Rasmus Asplund to a one-year, two-way contract.

Asplund was the No.33 overall pick in the 2016 NHL draft and spent the first three and a half seasons with the Sabres before being traded to the Predators last March. He was not retained by Nashville and lands in Florida where he'll provide some bottom-6 depth. The 25-year-old had just eight points (2G / 6A) in 46 games between Buffalo and Nashville last season.

The Predators acquired Asplund from the Sabres on Friday in exchange for a 2025 seventh-round draft pick.

A second-round pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft, Asplund moves to Nashville after spending the first four years of his career in the Sabres organization. Limited to a bottom-six role, Asplund has just two goals and six assists in 27 games this season.
