Hurricanes' Rocco Grimaldi: In camp on tryout
Rocco Grimaldi signed a professional tryout agreement with Carolina, Walt Ruff of the Carolina Hurricanes' official site reports Tuesday.Grimaldi hasn't made an NHL appearance since the 2021-22 campaign when he logged seven games for the Predators. Still, the veteran winger impressed with AHL Chicago last year, tallying 36 goals and 37 assists in 72 outings with the Wolves. If he can show even glimpses of that scoring touch during camp, Grimaldi should have a decent shot at earning at least a two-way deal from Carolina.

Predators' Rocco Grimaldi: Riding pine
Rocco Grimaldi was a healthy scratch for the fifth consecutive game Saturday against the Stars.This should not come as a surprise to anyone, as the 28-year-old Grimaldi has been in and out of the lineup all season, and furthermore has never played a full season in the NHL in his career. Given that the Preds are desperately clinging to a playoff spot with just four games remaining, it will be interesting to see if Grimaldi can work his way back into the lineup at some point down the stretch.
