INJURIES

Inks overseas deal Bemstrom is set to sign a one-year deal with Swiss club SC Bern, per AHL Insider Tony Androckitis on Tuesday.
Impact Bemstrom played in 14 games for the Penguins last season in which he notched one assist, 12 hits and three blocks while averaging just 8:20 of ice time. At 26 years of age, it's not impossible that the Swede makes an eventual return to the NHL, though he'd need to impress while in Europe.
AUGUST 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Set for free agency Bemstrom will not be qualified by the Penguins on Monday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports, making him an unrestricted free agent.
Impact Bemstrom saw action in 14 NHL games this past season in which he garnered just one assist, 13 shots and 12 hits while averaging 8:20 of ice time. Given his limited NHL opportunities last year, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see the Pens going in a different direction. The 26-year-old center will be free to sign with any NHL club when free agency opens Tuesday.

Returned to minors Bemstrom was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Saturday, according to Dave Molinari of Pittsburgh Hockey Now.
Impact Bemstrom has one assist in 14 NHL games this season. He has been stellar at the AHL level with 21 goals and 46 points in 45 games with the Baby Pens.

Elevated from minors Bemstrom was promoted from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday.
Impact Bemstrom has logged 13 games for the Pengions this season in which he has generated just one assist, 12 shots and 10 hits while averaging a career-low 8:20 of ice time. The addition of Bemstrom, along with fellow forwards Vasily Ponomarev and Valtteri Puustinen, under emergency conditions likely means that at least Rutger McGraoarty (lower body) and possibly others won't be in the lineup against the Devils on Friday.
APRIL 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Demoted Thursday Bemstrom was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
Impact Bemstrom was waived Monday and went unclaimed. He was scratched for Thursday's game versus the Blues, so it's no surprise that he'll head to the AHL with no clear path to playing time. The Penguins will likely use the rest of the regular season for prospect evaluation at the NHL level.
APRIL 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Lands on waivers Bemstrom was designated for waivers by the Penguins on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Bemstrom's placement on waivers may be simply a technical move that will allow him to be moved to the minors when the Penguins' season is over -- especially considering the Baby Pens will be making the Calder Cup Playoffs. Still, if Bemstrom does get shifted down to the minors, it could be to make way for another young prospect to come up from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.
MARCH 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Good to go Tuesday Bemstrom (undisclosed) will return to action versus Tampa Bay on Tuesday.
Impact Bemstrom will occupy a bottom-six role following a three-game absence. He has earned one assist, 11 shots on goal and nine hits in 10 NHL outings this season. Bemstrom will replace Evgeni Malkin (upper body) in Tuesday's lineup.
MARCH 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not playing Sunday Bemstrom (undisclosed) won't play against Florida on Sunday.
Impact Bemstrom will miss his third straight game. He has contributed one assist, 11 shots on goal and nine hits in 10 NHL outings this season. Due to Bemstrom's absence, Joona Koppanen will remain in the lineup for Sunday's matchup.
MARCH 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Still out against Columbus Bemstrom (undisclosed) will not be an option to face the Blue Jackets on Friday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
Impact Bemstrom will miss his second straight outing due to his lingering undisclosed injury. Without Bemstrom or Thomas Novak (lower body) in the lineup, the Penguins will continue to roll out Blake Lizotte and Joona Koppanen on the third line while Connor Dewar slots into a top-six role.
MARCH 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Unavailable Tuesday Bemstrom (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup versus the Islanders on Tuesday, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.
Impact With Bemstrom and Thomas Novak (lower body) unavailable to play, Joona Koppanen will suit up versus the Islanders after joining Pittsburgh on Tuesday from the minors on an emergency basis. Bemstrom has one assist, 11 shots on goal and nine hits in 10 NHL outings this season.
MARCH 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Snags helper Saturday Bemstrom registered an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Devils.
Impact This was Bemstrom's first NHL point of the campaign. He's currently filling a fourth-line role, but he's averaged just 8:54 of ice time over 10 appearances this season, so his fantasy value remains minimal. Bemstrom may be sent back to the AHL when Thomas Novak (lower body) is healthy enough to play.

FEBRUARY 27, 2025 • TRIBLIVE.COM
Recalled by Pittsburgh Bemstrom was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.
Impact Bemstrom will rejoin the NHL club after spending less than a week in the minors, and he'll provide additional depth after Michael Bunting (abdomen) was placed on injured reserve. Bemstrom has made just two appearances for Pittsburgh this year, and he's failed to record a point while averaging 12:14 of ice time.

Returned to AHL Bemstrom was assigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Saturday, per Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports.
Impact Bemstrom will return to the AHL with Bryan Rust and Evgeni Malkin both expected to rejoin the Pens against Washington on Saturday. Bemstrom has appeared in two games in the NHL this season, averaging 12:14 of ice time while failing to record a point.

FEBRUARY 18, 2025 • TRIBLIVE.COM
Brought up from minors Bemstrom was called up from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Tuesday.
Impact Bemstrom's promotion is no doubt in part due to the absence of Sidney Crosby, who is still with Team Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off. Unless there are several forwards who remain unavailable against Washington on Saturday, Bemstrom figures to serve as a healthy scratch -- assuming he is still on the NHL roster come puck drop.
FEBRUARY 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to minor-league club Bemstrom was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Saturday.
Impact Bemstrom failed to record a point over two NHL outings during this stint. If the Penguins are healthier following the 4 Nations Face-Off, they likely won't need to call up Bemstrom again.
FEBRUARY 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Called up from minors Bemstrom was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday.
Impact Bemstrom's promotion likely isn't an encouraging sign regarding the availability of Sidney Crosby (upper body) for Friday's matchup with the Rangers. Still, the Penguins are heading out on a two-game road trip, so adding another forward could be more of a precautionary measure. For his part, the 25-year-old Bemstrom has yet to suit up in the NHL this year but has been lighting it up in the minors with 19 goals and 22 assists in 37 minor-league contests.
FEBRUARY 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Placed on waivers Bemstrom was designated for waivers by the Penguins on Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Bemstrom played in 24 games for the Penguins last season in which he tallied three goals, two assists and 12 hits while averaging just 8:47 of ice time. Given his 228 games of NHL experience, mostly with the Blue Jackets, the 25-year-old center could be a strong candidate to be snatched off the wire, especially considering his minimal $775,000 cap hit.
OCTOBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Ready to rock Bemstrom (concussion) will be good to go for the start of training camp, the team announced Tuesday.
Impact Bemstrom registered eight goals and eight assists in 56 games between Columbus and Pittsburgh before sitting out the Penguins' regular-season finale. With a clean bill of health, he will compete for a bottom-six spot with the team during camp.
SEPTEMBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Staying put Bemstrom (concussion) signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Penguins on Monday.
Impact Bemstrom became an unrestricted free agent after Pittsburgh declined to present him with a qualifying offer, but the two sides ended up agreeing to terms anyway. The 25-year-old had eight goals and 16 points in 56 contests between the Blue Jackets and the Penguins in 2023-24. If Bemstrom's healthy, he'll likely start the season in a bottom-six capacity.
