The 21-year-old had a strong start to the AHL season to earn his call-up, recording five goals and eight points in seven games.
The native of Togliatti, Russia, has been a good support for the Predators in the last two games. This move will allow him to move into the top six with Milwaukee and improve on his strong AHL rookie season.
With Vinnie Hinostroza, Kieffer Bellows and Joakim Kemell all having strong seasons with the Admirals, Svechkov has no shortage of talented wingers to play with.
Svechkov, Nashville’s first-round pick in 2021, scored 39 points in 57 regular-season games last season and 12 points in 15 Calder Cup playoff games, his first in North America.
