Brendan Brisson - NHL News & Rumors

Stays warm with three-point effort Brisson scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Hartford's 4-1 win over Bridgeport on Saturday.

Impact Brisson has five points over his last three games, with all of that offense coming at Bridgeport's expense. He was on a six-game skid prior to this burst. For the season, Brisson has nine goals, four assists, 48 shots on net and a minus-16 rating over 30 appearances, and he's lacked the necessary consistency to get an NHL call-up.

Pots pair in AHL win Brisson scored twice in AHL Hartford's 5-2 win over Bridgeport on Saturday.

The 24-year-old forward's stock has fallen during his time in the Rangers' organization -- he has eight goals, two assists and a minus-15 rating over 28 appearances this season. Brisson has fallen behind some of the Rangers' younger forward prospects, and it's unclear if he'll see a call-up during 2025-26.

Lands on waivers Tuesday Brisson was placed on waivers by the Rangers on Tuesday, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.

Impact Brisson is expected to clear waivers, at which point he'll be reassigned to AHL Hartford. The 23-year-old was facing an uphill battle to make the Opening Night roster but should be in the mix for a call-up or two during the season. Still, without a regular NHL role, Brisson won't offer much in the way of fantasy value this season.

Inks one-year deal Brisson signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Rangers on Sunday, per PuckPedia.

Impact Brisson spent much of the 2024-25 regular season in the Golden Knights' organization, and he was dealt to the Rangers in a swap for Reilly Smith in March. The 23-year-old Brisson didn't appear in a game with New York, as he finished out the year with AHL Hartford, posting two goals, four helpers and a minus-9 rating over 16 outings. His new deal is a two-way contract, so he'll likely be limited to time with the Wolf Pack again this coming season, barring injuries. The California native will be a restricted free agent after the 2025-26 campaign.

Impact Brisson enjoyed his best game of the preseason in this one as he continues his long-shot push for an Opening Night roster spot.
