GREENVILLE, S.C. — Forward Adam Rockwood, defenseman Dylan MacPherson, and goaltender Ryan Bednard have been reassigned to the Greenville Swamp Rabbits from the Springfield Thunderbirds and will be re-added to the active roster immediately.

MacPherson, 21, played his second AHL game of the season on February 23 in his latest call-up. At the ECHL level, the Albertan’s offensive game has blossomed, as he has scored 16 points in 47 games. 10 of those 16 have come in 2020.
