The Columbus Blue Jackets have assigned defensemen Dysin Mayo to the Cleveland Monsters.
He was recalled the other day as an insurance policy but didn't draw into the lineup during his time with the NHL club.
Mayo, 29, has played in 82 games at the NHL level with the Arizona Coyotes and has scored 12 points. However, he has yet to make it back to the NHL and play again since 2022-23.
This season with the Monsters, he had played in four games and recorded two assists. At the AHL level, he has done better than he has in the NHL. In 430 AHL games, he has scored 29 goals and 70 assists for 99 points.
Mayo was originally called up because the Blue Jackets have been dealing with injuries. And, on the chance that they needed top dress another defensemen, he was already there with the team participating in practice with the main group. However, now that Columbus doesn't play until Friday, it makes more sense for him to rejoin Cleveland and f they need him again, he could be recalled prior to the game on Friday against the Washington Capitals.
