Aberg was assigned to AHL Milwaukee after Saturday's preseason game, Eric Stromgren of The Tennessean reports.

Analysis:

Aberg scored two goals in his preseason swan song, giving coach Peter Laviolette something to think about before cutting him. A former second-round pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, Aberg could find his way to Nashville later in the year if injuries ravage the team's depth on the wing.
