Loaned to AHL team Poturalski was loaned to AHL San Jose on Sunday.

Impact Poturalski has one assist, five shots on goal and four blocked shots in three NHL appearances this season. He has produced 18 goals and 45 points in 41 minor-league outings during the 2024-25 campaign.

Snags helper in loss Poturalski registered an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 8-3 loss to the Stars.

Impact Poturalski earned his first point in three NHL appearances this season. He's added five shots on net and four blocked shots while filling the second-line center role in the absence of Alexander Wennberg (upper body). The helper was Poturalski's first NHL point since the 2021-22 campaign when he had two helpers over two games with the Hurricanes. He's always been a high-scoring forward in the AHL, but it's never really translated in limited usage in the NHL. He'll have to sustain offense over a longer stretch to be a fantasy option, which could be tough in the Sharks' lineup.

Summoned from minors Poturalski was recalled from AHL San Jose on Tuesday.

Impact Poturalski could make his 2024-25 debut against the Canadiens on Tuesday -- the Sharks are dealing with numerous injuries to their forward group. The 31-year-old did not record a point in two appearances with the Kraken in 2023-24. Before being recalled, the New York native was leading the AHL in scoring with 18 goals and 45 points across 41 games.

JULY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Poturalski could be a potential replacement for Brandon Tanev (lower body), who didn't practice Saturday after leaving Friday's 5-1 loss to Vancouver. Oliver Bjorkstrand (undisclosed) was also unable to finish Friday's contest. Poturalski has two assists and four shots on goal in two NHL outings this campaign.

Brought up from AHL Poturalski was summoned from AHL Coachella Valley on Tuesday.

Waived Thursday Poturalski was placed on waivers by the Kraken on Thursday, Chris Johnston of TSN reports.

Impact Poturalski has played four career NHL games, picking up a pair of assists in two games with the Hurricanes during the 2021-22 campaign. The 29-year-old should play at AHL Coachella Valley, should he pass through waivers.

OCTOBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back earlier than expected Poturalski (lower body) played in AHL Coachella Valley's 3-2 triple-overtime win over Calgary on Monday.

Impact Poturalski had two PIM and four shots on goal in his first game action in three months. The 29-year-old was initially expected to miss 4-to-6 months after undergoing surgery in February, but he was able to return early and will look to contribute during the Firebirds' AHL playoff run.

MAY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Done for season Poturalski (lower body) underwent surgery Thursday and will be out 4-to-6 months.

Impact Poturalski has been one of the AHL's best forwards over the last couple of seasons. He'll end his first campaign with AHL Coachella Valley having racked up 42 points in 38 contests, though he didn't receive a call-up to Seattle during the season. He is under contract for next season with the Kraken on a one-way deal.
