Flyers' Emil Andrae: Called up by Philadelphia
Andrae was recalled by the Flyers on Friday, per the NHL media site.
Andrae had a strong preseason but was sent to the minors ahead of the regular season. However, he'll be called up ahead of Friday's Opening Night matchup against the Canucks after Nick Seeler (knee) was placed on injured reserve. It's not yet clear how much time Seeler will be forced to miss, but Andrae could have a chance to see some early-season ice time for the Flyers.

Flyers' Emil Andrae: Strong preseason continues
Andrae scored a goal and added two assists Thursday in a 5-4 win over New Jersey.
Andrae has had a strong preseason and is working to earn a spot as the Flyers' sixth or seventh defender. He has passed Adam Ginning on the depth chart, and is earning the trust of coach John Tortorella. Andrae won't impress on the fantasy ice, but he will give the Flyers a steady opt-in defender when the team needs a call-up.

Flyers' Emil Andrae: Drops to AHL
Andrae was reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Wednesday, per CapFriendly.
Andrae has played in four of six games for the Flyers so far, but he has yet to record his first NHL point. The defenseman has added six blocked shots, two hits and a minus-1 rating while averaging 13:00 of ice time per game. The Flyers will need to call up a blueliner prior to Thursday's game versus the Wild, as Andrae's reassignment leaves them with five on the roster.
