Blackhawks' Dylan Wells: Snags two-way deal
Wells penned a one-year, two-way contract with Chicago on Wednesday.
Wells has played three games on a minor-league deal for AHL Rockford this season in which he is 1-1-0 with a .862 save percentage and 4.27 GAA. With Alex Stalock (concussion) in doubt, the Hawks found themselves desperately short of NHL-eligible netminders, forcing them to sign Wells to a two-way deal that would allow him to be called up to Chicago.

Hurricanes' Dylan Wells: Shipped to Hurricanes organization
Wells was traded by the Oilers to the Hurricanes on Wednesday in exchange for future considerations.
Wells has been an AHL and ECHL fixture since 2018-19 and has yet to see NHL ice. He didn't feature in any game action in 2020-21, though, since he was included on the Oilers' taxi squad instead of suiting up for AHL Bakersfield. In 19 AHL appearances, Wells owns a 3.16 GAA and .898 save percentage.

Oilers' Dylan Wells: Assigned to AHL affiliate
Wells was assigned to AHL Bakersfield on Friday.
The Oilers added Alex Stalock (not injury related) to their active roster in a corresponding move, so they're no longer in need of Wells' services as an emergency option in goal. The 23-year-old backstop will head to the minors for the foreseeable future.

Oilers' Dylan Wells: Shifts to taxi squad
Wells was sent down to the taxi squad Friday.
Wells was an emergency recall with Mikko Koskinen (not injury related) missing Thursday's game against Montreal. The 23-year-old netminder likely won't see any NHL action in 2020-21 -- he's yet to make his debut. He recorded a 3.77 GAA and .878 save percentage in seven AHL games last season.

Oilers' Dylan Wells: Recalled to active roster
The Oilers recalled Wells to the active roster on an emergency basis Thursday.
It appears the team may be sitting Mikko Koskinen (undisclosed) as a precaution for Thursday's game, which would leave Wells to assume No. 2 duties behind starter Mike Smith. Wells made seven appearances in the AHL last season, recording a 3.77 GAA an d .878 save percentage over that span.

Oilers' Dylan Wells: Brought up to taxi squad
The Oilers recalled Wells from AHL Bakersfield and assigned him to their taxi squad Friday.
Troy Grosenick is still unavailable due to the NHL's COVID-19 protocols, so Wells will be on hand as an emergency option in net. The 23-year-old has posted a 3.77 GAA and a .878 save percentage in seven AHL appearances last season.

Oilers' Dylan Wells: Stellar in prospects' game
Wells stopped all 18 shots he faced in Saturday's 1-0 overtime loss to the Flames' prospects.
Wells played half of the game and did his part to make it a battle between himself and Flames netminder Artyom Zagidulin. Wells went 6-6-0 with one shutout, a 2.84 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 12 games played with AHL Bakersfield last year. He remains, at best, fourth on the goalie depth chart for the Oilers, who will probably begin the year with Mikko Koskinen and Mike Smith tending twine for the parent club.

Oilers' Dylan Wells: Ready for pro level
Wells will join the professional ranks this upcoming season.
Following four years spent in junior with OHL Peterborough, Wells will link up with with AHL Bakersfield or ECHL Wichita for the upcoming campaign. At best, the Ontario native slots in as the fourth goalie on the Oilers organizational depth chart, though that's a spot he may need to steal away from Shane Starrett, who logged the bulk of the minutes with the Thunder last season. With Al Montoya and Mikko Koskinen expected to compete for the backup job behind Cam Talbot, the 20-year-old Wells is unlikely to see any action for Edmonton for at least another season.
