Ducks' Ben Street: Shipped to minors

Street joined the Ducks on Monday as a potential replacement in the lineup Wednesday, but his services will no longer be needed following news that Rickard Rakell (ankle) is ready to rejoin the lineup. The veteran winger has contributed five points over 21 games this season, but he will return to the minors to provide organizational depth for the time being.

Ducks' Ben Street: Returns to Ducks

Street has five points in 21 games with the Ducks this season, but he's barely played with the big club since the beginning of November. As such, it wouldn't be surprising if the 31-year-old is a healthy scratch while he's up, and he may return to the AHL pretty quickly.

Ducks' Ben Street: Dropped down to AHL

Street has three goals and five points in 21 games with Anaheim this year, but was sent back to the AHL with Rickard Rakell (ankle) expected back from injured reserve. The 31-year-old had 65 points in 73 games with AHL Grand Rapids last season and should be on the shortlist for call-ups in the event of another Ducks injury.

Ducks' Ben Street: Waived again

Considering the previous two times the Ducks waived Street he was kept in the NHL, that may be the case again, as the team is probably just keeping its options open in terms of roster flexibility. Until the center is actually moved to the minors, he will need to be waived about once a month to maintain the ability to ship him down in case a roster spot is needed.

Ducks' Ben Street: Stays put after clearing waivers

Street proved to be a dependable injury filler to start the season, as he picked up three goals and five points to complement a plus-2 rating over the first eight games, but the B.C. native was held pointless with a minus-6 value in 10 subsequent contests. Street is at his best when his role is clearly defined, but that hasn't been the case lately.
