The Texas Stars have announced that they have recalled Kevin DeVergilio from the Idaho Steelheads. With both Ray Sawada and Warren Peters up in Dallas, they will need an extra forward skater to even make 12 and DeVergilio is their man.

The Stars previously were down to 11 forward skaters with Peters and Sawada in Dallas and Wilson out for injury. Here's the release.
