Wild Recall Kalus; Minnesota Debut Likely

The Minnesota Wild have recalled Petr Kalus in the event that Cal Clutterbuck is not ready to go for tonight’s game against the Florida Panthers.  Clutterbuck was injured in Sunday’s loss to the Calgary Flames and is thought to be nursing a deep bruise to his thigh muscle. 

View from the Lighthouse has reported that Clutterbuck was not at the morning skate and it is likely that Kalus will make his debut for the Minnesota Wild tonight, wearing #23. 

Kalus, the main return in the trade with Boston for Manny Fernandez, has 15 points (11-4=15) this season for the Houston Aeros with 64 PIM and a minus-8 rating.  Should he play in tonight’s game, it will be his first NHL action since 2007 where he had four goals and an assist in nine games for the Bruins.
