The Anaheim Ducks have announced the reassignment of forward Sam Colangelo to the AHL's San Diego Gulls. This move comes as part of the Ducks' strategy to refine their roster and give Colangelo a chance to gain valuable playing time. The 23-year-old forward has been working hard to develop his skills and adapt to the demands of professional hockey.

Colangelo, a product of the Chicago Steel, was selected by the Ducks in the second round of the 2019 NHL Draft. He spent time in the junior leagues and has shown promise in his offensive abilities. The decision to send him down indicates the Ducks' desire to help him gain more experience, which could be beneficial for his development and future contributions to the team.

As the Ducks navigate their season, they are focused on building a competitive roster while allowing their younger players, like Colangelo, to grow. This move reflects the organization's long-term vision and commitment to nurturing young talent, ensuring the franchise's future remains bright. Ducks fans will be keeping an eye on Colangelo's performance with the Gulls as they hope to see him back in orange and black soon.
