Winterton was the third-round pick, 67th overall, of the Seattle Kraken in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. The 21-year-old had a nine-game stint with Seattle last season, scoring zero points. He has five points (3G / 2A) in seven games with the Coachella Valley Firebirds (AHL) this season.

George was the fourth-round pick, 98th overall, of the Islanders in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. The 20-year-old defenseman has two points (1G / 1A) in four games with the Bridgeport Islanders (AHL) this season, his first professional campaign.

Bolduc made his season debut on Sunday in a 5-2 loss to the New York Rangers, playing 5:56 time-on-ice and recording a -1 plus/minus. His reassignment to the Bridgeport Islanders (AHL) likely indicates that Alexander Romanov (upper body) could return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Dallas recalled Capobianco ahead of their two-game stint in Finland as part of the NHL Global Series, but he did not draw into the lineup and has been sent back down to the Texas Stars (AHL). The 27-year-old Capobianco has 73 games of NHL experience but has primarily been an AHL player. Last season with the Manitoba Moose (AHL), Capobianco had 54 points (12G / 42A) in 69 games.

Prishchepov played his first NHL game on Saturday, recording two shots and three hits in 13:30 time-on-ice. The 20-year-old was a seventh-round pick of the Avalanche in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft.

In his first season with the Avalanche, Kovalenko has shown glimpses of the talent that made him an offensive standout with Nizhny Novgorod Torpedo (KHL), but limited deployment has likely stunted the opportunity for true success. In 12 games, Kovalenko is averaging 13:41 time-on-ice and has four points (1G / 3A).

Ivan has been a regular in the lineup for Colorado this season, playing all 12 games and tallying four points (2G / 2A), while averaging 11:11 time-on-ice. Recently, Ivan found himself on Colorado's top powerplay unit due to the team's abundance of injuries.

In a corresponding move, the Capitals placed Jakob Chychrun on injured reserve. Iorio, who appeared in six NHL games last season, has scored one goal with two assists (three points) in nine AHL games this season.

Luneau was the 53rd overall pick of the Ducks in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. The 20-year-old recorded zero points a -5 plus/minus in six games with the Ducks this season.

Bains recorded his first career NHL goal on Saturday and has been impressive in Vancouver this season but continues to be a part of paper transactions sending him back to Abbotsford (AHL) due to salary cap implications. Last season with Abbotsford (AHL), Bains was an offensive stalwart, producing 55 points (16G / 39A) in 59 games, but the 23-year-old has played exclusively at the NHL level this season.

Brannstrom has been solid in Vancouver this season, averaging 14:15 time-on-ice from the blue line, tallying a point (0G / 1A) and a +3 plus/minus. That said, he continues to be a part of paper transactions, sending him back and forth from Abbotsford (AHL) due to salary cap implications.

The injury-depleted Avalanche, now without Matthew Stienburg due to a two-game suspension, have recalled another newcomer on Friday with the arrival of Prischepov. The 20-year-old Prischepov was a seventh-round pick of the Avalanche in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft. He has four points (1G / 3A) in six games with the Colorado Eagles (AHL) this season.
