The Montreal Canadiens recalled the goaltender from the AHL’s Laval Rocket, the team announced on Wednesday.
Fowler was with the Habs for 10 games earlier this season. He went 4-4-2 with a .903 save percentage and a 2.62 goals-against average during that stretch. His last appearance came on Jan. 15 against the Buffalo Sabres.
With the Rocket, he’s made 27 appearances this campaign, boasting a .916 save percentage and a 2.23 goals-against average.
The Canadiens drafted Fowler in the third round in 2023.
