Both Gudas and Michal Kempny are battling illness, so Christian Djoos was called up from the AHL in case one or both of them miss tonight's game vs. the Blue Jackets.
Harkins has been terrific in the AHL this season, leading Manitoba with 31 points (7G / 24A) in 30 games. The former second-round pick will replace Joona Luoto, so look for him to start his career on the fourth line.
Harkins was a second-round pick (No.47 overall) in 2015 and has played in 156 AHL games since. This year the 22-year-old winger leads the Manitoba Moose with 31 points (7G / 24A) in 30 games. He could make his NHL debut before the Christmas break with Mathieu Perreault and Andrew Copp both going on IR on Wednesday.
Terry suffered a broken bone in his leg during the second period of Tuesday's game in Philadelphia and will miss at least two and a half months. With Terry and Derek Grand getting hurt, the Ducks have recalled Isac Lundestrom and Max Jones from San Diego (AHL).
Terry left the Ducks' loss in Philadelphia in the second period and did not return. Head coach Dallas Eakins did not have an update on Terry post-game, but it seems unlikely that he will be available in New Jersey. Sam Carrick is their only reserve forward, so expect him to replace Terry.
