Milwaukee, WI--Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile announced today that the club has recalled defenseman Teemu Laakso from Milwaukee.

Laakso has posted a team-high four assists in five games for the Admirals in 2010-11, including one helper in Milwaukee’s 3-2 victory at Grand Rapids last night.

Nashville's second choice, 78th overall (third round), in 2005 Entry Draft also has 26 points (6g-20a) in 93 AHL games since coming to North America for the 2008-09 season.
