    McKeown provided six goals and 22 points in 60 games for AHL Milwaukee last season. He also suited up in six contests with the Predators during the 2022-23 campaign. The 27-year-old defender will probably spend most, if not all, of this season in the minors.

  • Predators' Roland McKeown: Back to minors

  • Predators' Roland McKeown: Up with Predators

    McKeown was summoned by Nashville from the AHL on Thursday, per the AHL's transaction page.

    McKeown has no points in three NHL games while averaging 13:44 of ice time this season. At the AHL level, he's recorded two goals and eight points in 25 contests. If the 26-year-old plays for the Predators during this NHL stint, it will likely be as part of the bottom pairing.

  • Predators' Roland McKeown: Sent down

    McKeown was returned to AHL Milwaukee on Sunday.

    McKeown was a healthy scratch Saturday versus Colorado because Jeremy Lauzon (upper body) returned to the lineup. The former has four blocks and one hit in three appearances with Nashville this season.

  • Predators' Roland McKeown: Brought up Monday

    McKeown was recalled from AHL Milwaukee on Monday.

    With injuries to both Alexandre Carrier (upper body) and Jeremy Lauzon (upper body), the Predators called up both McKeown and Kevin Gravel. The recently promoted duo should both step into the lineup versus the Blues on Monday with the 26-year-old McKeown making his 2022-23 debut. In the minors this year, McKeown has chipped in eight points in 22 games and could be a decent mid-range fantasy target.

  • Predators' Roland McKeown: Waived by Nashville

    McKeown was placed on waivers Sunday, CapFriendly reports.

    McKeown hasn't appeared in the NHL since suiting up for 10 games with Carolina during the 2017-18 season. He should spend the year with AHL Milwaukee.

  • Predators' Roland McKeown: Shores up Nashville's depth

    McKeown signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Predators on Wednesday, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports.

    McKeown had 20 points in 61 contests with AHL Colorado last season. He hasn't played in the NHL since 2017-18, so this is almost surely a depth move for the Predators' farm team.

  • Avalanche's Roland McKeown: Waived Wednesday

    McKeown was waived by the Avalanche on Wednesday, Adrian Dater of Colorado Hockey Now reports.

    McKeown, who last played in the NHL in 2017, spent last season in Sweden. He's destined to start the year at AHL Colorado if no other team claims him.

  • Avalanche's Roland McKeown: Clears COVID-19 protocols

    McKeown has cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocols, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.

    McKeown tested positive for the virus Thursday, but he's evidently already made a full recovery. The 25-year-old blueliner hasn't appeared in an NHL contest since 2017-18, so he'll almost certainly begin the 2021-22 campaign in the minors.

  • Avalanche's Roland McKeown: Tests positive for COVID-19

    McKeown has been added to the NHL's COVID-19 protocols list after testing positive for the virus, Mike Chambers of The Denver Post reports.

    At this point there's to telling when McKeown may be cleared to join the Avalanche for training camp. Either way, the 25-year-old defender hasn't appeared in an NHL contest since 2017-18, so this isn't a situation fantasy managers will need to monitor.

  • Avalanche's Roland McKeown: Headed west to Colorado

    McKeown signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Avalanche on Wednesday, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports.

    McKeown hasn't played an NHL game since the 2017-18 season, so this is little more than a depth signing for the Avalanche. It's unlikely the 25-year-old blueliner will be able to unseat anyone from the Avalanche's current defense corps for an everyday job, and he could spend much of the year with AHL Colorado.

  • Hurricanes' Roland McKeown: Joins active roster

    McKeown was promoted to the active roster Tuesday, per CapFriendly.

    McKeown appears set to serve as one of the Hurricanes' Black Aces during the playoffs. He last played at the NHL level in 2017-18, when he produced three assists in 10 games for the Hurricanes.

  • Hurricanes' Roland McKeown: Back stateside, on taxi squad

    McKeown returned to North America and was assigned to the Hurricanes' taxi squad Wednesday, per CapFriendly.

    McKeown put up nine points in 24 games with Skelleftea AIK in Sweden. The 25-year-old defenseman isn't likely to see much, if any, NHL action in 2020-21.

  • Hurricanes' Roland McKeown: Hits waiver wire

    McKeown was designated for waivers by the Hurricanes on Wednesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports, which will allow him to remain in Sweden for the upcoming season.

    Considering McKeown hasn't played in an NHL game since 2017-18, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see him staying in Sweden on loan this year. In 61 outings for AHL Charlotte last year, the 24-year-old blueliner garnered four goals and 20 assists. Selected by the Kings in the second round of the 2014 NHL Draft, McKeown is unlikely to develop into anything more than a fringe NHL option at this point.

  • Hurricanes' Roland McKeown: Lands one-year deal

    The Hurricanes signed McKeown to a one-year, two-way contract and assigned him to Skelleftea AIK of the SHL on Friday.

    McKeown spent the entirety of the 2019-20 season in the minors, posting 24 points in 61 games with AHL Charlotte. He'll be recalled for the Hurricanes' training camp, but he'll likely once again spend most, if not all of the upcoming campaign with Charlotte.
