RILEY STILLMAN NEWS

Leaves Thursday's game Stillman (face) won't return to Thursday's game versus the Bruins, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports.

Impact Stillman took a skate to the face on his first shift, Lavalette adds. Stillman's exit is reportedly for precautionary reasons -- he was a fill-in for Dmitry Orlov (undisclosed) in this contest, who was a late scratch just before puck drop, so it's possible the Hurricanes are just being careful with their defense in a precarious position.

Playing Thursday Stillman remains on the Hurricanes' roster for Thursday's game versus the Bruins, per the NHL media site.

Impact Stillman was waived Thursday, but he can continue to play while on waivers. The move was likely made to give the Hurricanes more roster flexibility. Stillman will be in the lineup Thursday because Dmitry Orlov (undisclosed) is dealing with a minor injury that will keep him out of action for at least one game.

On waiver wire Stillman was designated for waivers by Carolina on Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact While it could be nothing more than a technical paper transaction, the decision to waive Stillman could be an indication the Canes are looking to bolster their defensive group ahead of Friday's trade deadline. The 26-year-old blueliner has played in just two NHL games for Carolina this season in which he averaged a paltry 4:46 of ice time. Assuming he clears, Stillman should link up with AHL Chicago -- at least until the 23-man roster limit lifts.
