Former Union forward Jeremy Welsh will begin the new year back in the minors.

| Welsh in action earlier this season |
His lone point in 19 games with the Canucks this season was a goal in a 6-2 win over Columbus on November 22. The goal was his first at the NHL level and the first by a former Union player at that level.
Often seeing limited minutes on the fourth line, Welsh struggled to cement his spot in the Canucks lineup. He was a healthy scratch in 13 of the team's last 16 contests.
The 25-year-old appeared in two games with Utica before being recalled on October 20. He didn't record a point.
Vancouver acquired Welsh in a September trade with Carolina, the team he signed with in the hours following Union's Frozen Four semifinals loss to Ferris State on April 5, 2012.
