The Ducks have reassigned Sami Vatanen to Norfolk (AHL).

Vatanen was the 106th overall pick in 2009 (4th round). Vatanen recorded 14 points (6G / 8A) in 39 games with the Ducks this season. He has been sent down because of the great blueline depth in Anaheim, he is simply a victim of a numbers game and will see a lot more playing time in Norfolk.

The Ducks have recalled Sami Vatanen from Norfolk (AHL).

Vatanen posted one goal and four assists in 17 games with the Ducks earlier in the season. During his stop in Norfolk he has one goal and two assists in two games. He has an incredibly bright future ahead of him, but until he lands a permanent spot on the Ducks blueline he is not a legit fantasy consideration.
