Hurricanes recall McKegg on emergency basis
Jamie KellnerThe Carolina Hurricanes announced Friday that they have recalled Charlotte Checkers forward Greg McKegg on an emergency basis and have placed center Jordan Staal on injured reserve.
McKegg has been a high-energy forward on a dominant Charlotte Checkers team this season. He ranks fourth on the team in points with 23 in 31 games and brings speed to a loaded Checkers top-six. McKegg and Checkers forward Andrew Poturalski have been great complimentary pieces to a young Checkers team. McKegg is coming off a two-goal performance in the Checkers 5-4 overtime loss against the Toronto Marlies.
