Impact This was Howe's first multi-point effort of his AHL career. The 20-year-old forward has four points in six outings since he made his professional debut following knee surgery he underwent last April. Howe will likely spend the rest of this season and most or all of 2026-27 in the AHL at a minimum to continue his development.

Filip Hallander - On conditioning stint Hallander (blood clot in leg) has been sent to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton for a conditioning stint, Dave Molinari of Pittsburgh Hockey Now reports Wednesday.

Impact Pittsburgh won't resume its NHL schedule until Feb. 26, so this is an ideal time for Hallander to get back up to speed in the minors. The 25-year-old hasn't played since Nov. 3 because of the blood clot. Once Hallander completes his AHL conditioning stint, he'll probably serve in a bottom-six capacity for Pittsburgh.
