The Golden Knights recalled defenseman Daniil Miromanov from the American Hockey League on Thursday.

Miromanov is yet to appear in the NHL, but he was one of the standouts in preseason with a pair of goals. He has two goals and four points in two games with the Silver Knights.

Defenseman Alec Martinez was hurt in the third period of the Knights’ 3-1 loss to St. Louis on Wednesday and did not return. The Knights host Edmonton on Friday at T-Mobile Arena.
