The Ducks have recalled defenseman Josh Manson from the Norfolk Admirals, Anaheim’s primary development affiliate in the American Hockey League (AHL).

Manson, 23 (10/7/91), scored 0-1=1 point with four penalty minutes (PIM) in seven games for Norfolk this season. The 6-3, 217-pound defenseman also appeared in one preseason contest for the Ducks last month, going scoreless with five PIM.

Selected in the sixth round (160th overall) of the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, Mason scored 6-15=21 points with 158 PIM in 99 games with Northeastern University (Hockey East). He has never appeared in an NHL game.
