Out several months with broken arm The Panthers announced Wednesday that Schwindt is dealing with a broken arm that is expected to sideline him for 2-3 months, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Schwindt exited Monday's win over the Canucks due to his injury, and he'll likely undergo surgery next week to address the issue. The 24-year-old is slated to be sidelined until at least mid-January, while Jack Devine is slated to make his NHL debut on the fourth line against the Devils on Thursday after he was called up Tuesday.

Injured in Monday's victory Schwindt will see a doctor Wednesday after exiting Monday's 8-5 win over the Canucks due to an undisclosed injury, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.

Impact Olive noted that Schwindt's injury is not expected to be short term. The 24-year-old winger departed Monday's game following a collision with Sergei Bobrovsky in the first period. Since Schwindt is anticipated to miss some time, the Panthers will more than likely recall a forward from AHL Charlotte in the near future due to multiple injuries the team is dealing with up front.

Nets goal in win Schwindt scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Capitals.

Impact Schwindt has two goals over eight appearances this season after being a regular healthy scratch for the first couple of weeks of the campaign. He's added seven shots on net, eight hits, six blocked shots and a plus-1 rating. Schwindt is likely to stay in a fourth-line role for the bulk of the season, which gives him limited potential on offense.

First point with original team Schwindt scored a goal and blocked two shots in Saturday's 3-0 win over Vegas.

Impact Not only was Schwindt able to score his first point with Florida after the team drafted him in 2019, but it came against the Golden Knights, who released him after he played 42 games with the club a year ago. It's a nice story for the 24-year-old, who was also making his season debut with Florida. While Schwindt isn't on the fantasy hockey radar, performances such as Saturday's should help him fight for a roster spot when Thomas Noesk (knee) and Matthew Tkachuk (groin) return from injury.

Rejoining Cats Schwindt was picked up off waivers by Florida on Friday, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports.

Impact Schwindt was originally drafted by the Panthers back in 2019 and saw action in three NHL games for the club in which he generated five hits, three shots and a minus-4 rating. With the Knights last year, the 24-year-old winger notched one goal and seven helpers. Schwindt figures to step into a bottom-six role for Florida, but he could end up back on waivers once Tomas Nosek (knee) or Matthew Tkachuk (groin) is cleared to return.

Waived by Golden Knights Schwindt was placed on waivers by Vegas on Thursday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Impact Schwindt made 42 regular-season appearances for the Golden Knights last year and recorded a goal, seven assists, 41 hits and 17 blocked shots while averaging 9:15 of ice time. He returned to the team on a one-year deal during the offseason but failed to earn a spot on the Opening Night roster. If he clears waivers, he's slated to head to AHL Henderson to begin the regular season.

Lands one-year deal Schwindt agreed to a one-year contract with Vegas on Sunday.

Impact Schwindt generated one goal, seven assists, 32 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and 41 hits over 42 regular-season games for the Golden Knights in 2024-25. The 24-year-old forward will be in the mix for a depth role with Vegas during training camp.

Gets first NHL goal Schwindt scored an empty-net goal and added three hits in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Canucks.

Impact As expected, the Golden Knights rested some regulars Wednesday, allowing Schwindt to play for the fourth time since the start of March. The 23-year-old scored the Golden Knights' last goal of the regular season, and it was his first NHL goal, coming in his 49th appearance. He produced eight points, 32 shots on net, 41 hits, 17 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in 2024-25. Assuming there are no lingering injuries at forward heading into the playoffs, Schwindt is poised to spend most of the postseason as a healthy scratch.

APRIL 17 • Associated Press

Little playing time late in season Schwindt has played in just three of the Golden Knights' 22 games since the start of March.

Impact Schwindt could draw in for Wednesday's regular-season finale if the Golden Knights opt to rest more players. The 23-year-old missed some time with a lower-body injury between January and March, and he hasn't been able to carve out a regular role since he got healthy. He's contributed seven helpers, 31 shots on net and 38 hits over 41 appearances this season. Barring a bad stretch of injuries, Schwindt probably won't see much action in the playoffs.
