Carson Lambos recalled as Jonas Brodin placed on injured reserve

Iowa Wild posted a team release today confirming the Minnesota Wild recalled defenseman Carson Lambos from Iowa and placed veteran NHL blueliner Jonas Brodin on injured reserve. The announcement was framed as a routine NHL recall for roster and injury management, but it carries practical implications for both clubs and Iowa fans.

Through 34 games this season with Iowa, Lambos has 8 points (3 goals, 5 assists), has fired 49 shots and logged 28 penalty minutes. The release notes Lambos made his NHL debut on Dec. 18, and it also recapped his background as a first-round pick in 2021 and his career AHL totals with Iowa. The call-up gives Minnesota a fresh option on the right side of the defense and places an immediate vacancy in Iowa’s lineup.

For Iowa Wild fans the recall means changes on the depth chart at the back end. Expect the club to shuffle pairings and give opportunities to other defensemen already in the AHL rotation. The release included roster and season-ticket information aimed at supporters tracking lineup shifts and game plans, so check the official channels for the latest ticketing and roster updates before heading to the rink.

From a community standpoint this is the kind of roster movement that defines AHL life: development, short-term call-ups and quick adjustments to keep prospects moving toward the NHL while maintaining competitive teams at the minor-league level. Lambos’ stat line shows he’s contributing offensively and getting looks on goal, which are the sorts of tangible metrics that earn recalls and keep a player in consideration for NHL minutes.

This move also underscores the Minnesota-Iowa pipeline: recalls like this are routine but meaningful for player development and for season-ticket holders who follow prospects closely. For Iowa, it’s a prompt to re-evaluate pairings and power-play usage; for Lambos, it’s another chance to build on the NHL debut he made in December.

Monitor game-day rosters and the Iowa Wild website for immediate lineup updates and ticketing notes. The next few games will reveal how Iowa adjusts and whether another call-up or re-shuffle follows as the season progresses.
