Predators call up Sulzer

From the Nashville Predators:

Nashville, Tenn. (January 14, 2009) – Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile announced today that the club has recalled defenseman Alexander Sulzer from the Milwaukee Admirals of the American Hockey League. To make room on the 23-man roster for him, defenseman Greg de Vries was placed on the injured reserve list retroactive to Jan. 6.

Sulzer, 24 (5/30/84), ranks third among AHL defensemen in both points (29) and assists (22).  He is also third on the Admirals in both categories, in addition to being second on the club in power-play goals (4).

Sulzer, who recently signed a two-year contract extension, has enjoyed a fine year at the AHL level and has yet to play in the NHL.
