The last offseason player tracker from the Central Division comes from the resurrected Milwaukee Admirals. After being one of three teams to opt-out of the 2020-21 AHL regular season, the Ads will play their first game in over a year and a half as Milwaukee hosts the Grand Rapids Griffins at Panther Arena on Saturday, October 16 (6:00pm CDT).
This tracker will be a bit different than the previous ones, highlighting players returning to the Admirals after playing with Milwaukee in 2019-20 (and obviously elsewhere in 2020-21), new additions who played with Nashville’s AHL affiliate last season — the Chicago Wolves, new additions signed in 2020 or the 2021 offseason, departures, and free agents.
