Aston-Reese was elevated from AHL Cleveland on Wednesday.
Aston-Reese has appeared in just 26 NHL games this season, recording one goal, four assists and 17 shots while averaging 9:37 of ice time. Even with his promotion to the NHL roster, Aston-Reese is far from a lock to secure a spot in the lineup against the Hurricanes on Thursday and could find himself serving as a healthy scratch.
