Donovan Sebrango - NHL News & Rumors

Placed on waivers Sebrango was placed on waivers by the Panthers on Monday, PuckPedia reports.

Impact Sebrango made 42 regular-season appearances between Ottawa and Florida last year and recorded no goals, eight assists, 77 hits, 68 PIM and 32 blocked shots while averaging 15:06 of ice time. He'll presumably begin the 2026-27 campaign in the minors but will be a candidate to rejoin the NHL club if the Panthers deal with injuries at some point.

Secures one-year deal Sebrango agreed to terms on a one-year contract with Florida on Wednesday, David Dwork of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Sebrango finished the 2025-26 season on a high note, recording four helpers in the final five games of the regular season. Still, the 24-year-old blueliner has yet to find the back of the net in 44 career NHL games, so fantasy managers probably shouldn't be banking on him producing a ton of offense.

Not extended qualifying offer Sebrango did not receive a qualifying offer from the Panthers on Monday, per Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald.

Impact Sebrango is now free to sign with any other NHL club when free agency opens July 1. The left-shot defenseman was claimed off waivers by Florida from Ottawa at the beginning of last season. Sebrango went on to supply eight helpers and 76 hits over 40 games with the Panthers, in addition to appearing in two regular-season contests with the Senators.

Pockets helper Wednesday Sebrango notched an assist and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 8-1 win over the Red Wings.

Impact Sebrango ended the season with five helpers and a plus-10 rating over his last nine games. The defenseman has handled a larger role well while the Panthers were short-staffed on the blue line. Sebrango totaled eight assists, 33 shots on net, 77 hits, 32 blocked shots and 68 PIM across 42 appearances between Florida and Ottawa this season.

Slated to play Thursday Sebrango (undisclosed) is expected to be in the lineup Thursday versus the Bruins, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.

Impact Sebrango was facing an injury concern, but he checked out fine after the contest and shouldn't miss time. The 24-year-old will likely get to continue seeing top-four minutes after Aaron Ekblad (hand) and Dmitry Kulikov (face) were ruled out for Thursday. Sebrango has two assists over his last six games but has yet to see an uptick in power-play usage despite the Panthers' numerous injuries.

APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE

Injury concern after Tuesday's game Sebrango (undisclosed) may have gotten nicked up at the end of Tuesday's game versus the Senators, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Sebrango's injury is not confirmed yet, but the Panthers also lost Aaron Ekblad (hand) and Dmitry Kulikov (face) in this contest. The 24-year-old Sebrango will be day-to-day ahead of Thursday's game versus the Bruins.

APRIL 1 • ROTOWIRE

Ends slump with helper Sebrango notched an assist and two hits in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Flames.

Impact The helper was Sebrango's first point since he had two assists versus the Golden Knights on Nov. 10. He went 21 contests without getting on the scoresheet. Despite the lack of offense, Sebrango now has a clear path to playing time after Niko Mikkola (knee) sustained an injury Friday that will likely cost him time. Sebrango is at three assists, 20 shots on net, 48 hits, 22 blocked shots, 60 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 29 outings between the Panthers and the Senators this season.

Competing for playing time Sebrango was in the lineup for a second straight game in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Sebrango has gone 13 games without a point while sitting out 29 times in that span. He's in competition for third-pairing minutes currently, though Tobias Bjornfot (undisclosed) could push him out of the lineup. Both defensemen could eventually lose their places once Seth Jones (upper body) and Dmitry Kulikov (upper body) get healthy.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Out of favor on blue line Sebrango was scratched for the 10th straight game in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact Sebrango overtook Uvis Balinskis for a spot on the third pairing in November, but the two have flipped roles in December. That's led to Sebrango sitting in the press box most of the time, though the Panthers may be hesitant to waive the blueliner since they snagged him off waivers from the Senators in October. Sebrango has two assists, eight shots on net, 18 hits, 11 blocked shots, 14 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 12 appearances this season, but he'll have to continue to wait for his next opportunity to play.
