The Ottawa Senators assigned<\/a> forward Olle Lycksell<\/a> to the AHL\u2019s Belleville Senators early on Friday. Lycksell appeared in two games with Ottawa this week, but sat out of the team\u2019s most recent game on Thursday. He didn\u2019t manage any scoring in those appearances.<\/p>\n

Lycksell is in his first year in the Senators\u2019 organization after signing a one-year, two-way, league-minimum $775K contract with the club on July 1st. He spent the last three seasons bouncing between the Philadelphia Flyers\u2019 major and minor league rosters. He totaled 11 points in 45 NHL games, and 128 points in 134 AHL games with the Flyers. He\u2019ll look to maintain near point-per-game scoring in the minors with Belleville. If he can, he could soon return to a depth role with Ottawa.<\/p>\n

Other notes from around the league:<\/p>\n

The Utah Mammoth have a colossal extension looming when top center Logan Cooley<\/a> hits free agency next summer. But despite minimal talks of an extension, Cooley\u2019s agent, Brian Bartlett, told the Daily Faceoff that he\u2019s not worried<\/a> about getting a deal done. Bartlett emphasized that Cooley still has plenty of time to work something out. There\u2019s no doubt Mammoth fan will be watching closely for Cooley\u2019s next contract, after he posted 109 points in 157 games with the club over his first two seasons in the NHL. He\u2019s likely to sign a hardy extension that should cement his spot as Utah\u2019s top center.
\nThe Calgary Flames are interested in acquiring a big-bodied, left-shot defenseman per Daily Faceoff\u2019s Anthony Di Marco<\/a>, who adds that Flyers defender Egor Zamula<\/a> could be a prime target. Zamula played in 120 games with the WHL\u2019s Calgary Hitmen before beginning his pro career. Now, he\u2019s found himself on the outside of Philadelphia\u2019s daily lineup, despite mixed results. Zamula boasts a career stat line of 40 points in 157 games. He posted a career-high 21 points and plus-three in 66 games of the 2023-24 season, but fell to just 15 points and a minus-14 in 63 games last year. That dip in scoring could make him a relatively cheap acquisition, should Calgary swing a trade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Ottawa Senators assigned forward Olle Lycksell to the AHL\u2019s Belleville Senators early on Friday.
