The New York Rangers announced today that defenseman Jarred Tinordi has been recalled from his AHL conditioning stint with the Hartford Wolf Pack.
In the five games he played for Hartford, Tinordi registered an assist, a +1 rating, and two shots. The rugged 29 year-old defenseman did not pick up any penalty minutes.
Tinordi was struggling with limited playing time this season. In five games with the Rangers he had no points with a -5 rating. He signed a two-year deal this summer with an AAV of $900K.
