Pay back to old mates Sourdif scored a goal in a 6-3 loss to Florida on Thursday.

Tallies first goal Sourdif scored a goal and added five hits in Friday's 5-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact The goal was Sourdif's first as a Capital. He's emerged as a regular in the lineup this season, appearing in all eight games as a bottom-six forward. The 23-year-old has picked up 10 shots, 14 hits, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. His ability to play center will likely help him stay in the lineup, especially while Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) is out.

Moves past illness Sourdif (illness) will be available to play in Thursday's home preseason contest versus the Flyers, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News on Tuesday.

Impact Sourdif opened training camp in a non-contact jersey, but he'll be an option to draw into the lineup Thursday. The 23-year-old has appeared in just four career regular-season NHL games, but he should up that number significantly in 2025-26 after being acquired from the Panthers in June for two draft picks.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Limited during Thursday's skate Sourdif skated in a non-contact jersey Thursday for precautionary reasons, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

Impact The nature of Sourdif's ailment isn't yet known, but it appears as though he can be considered day-to-day for now since his limitations were labeled as precautionary. Sourdif was traded to the Capitals from the Panthers during the offseason, and he should have an opportunity to earn an Opening Night roster spot during camp if he can return to full health soon.

Locks in with Caps Sourdif signed a two-year, $1.65 million contract with the Capitals, the team announced Saturday.

Impact Despite having just four games in the NHL, the Capitals paid a hefty price to bring Sourdif in, parting with a second and sixth-round draft pick. Locking the 23-year-old in on this deal was the next piece of business, and now the pressure will be on for both team and player for him to earn a spot on the roster and be a meaningful contributor. In his four NHL games, he has recorded just one point and holds a plus-1 rating.

JUNE 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Flipped to Washington Sourdif was traded to the Capitals from the Panthers on Thursday in exchange for a 2026 second-round pick and a 2027 sixth-round pick.

Impact Clearly, the Capitals think Sourdif has something to offer in the NHL by giving up two picks to get him while he's still a restricted free agent. The 23-year-old forward put up 34 points in 43 regular-season games with AHL Charlotte last season and added 10 points in 18 playoff outings. Sourdif will need a new contract, but the investment by the Capitals suggests he could push for a bottom-six job in 2025-26.

Panthers get goalie Daniil Tarasov from Blue Jackets, Wild trade center Freddy Gaudreau to Kraken

Heads to AHL Sourdif was reassigned to AHL Charlotte on Wednesday, according to Alex Baumgartner of Five Reasons Sports.

Impact Sourdif has 11 goals and 22 points in 29 appearances with Charlotte in 2024-25. He made his NHL season debut Tuesday, providing a goal on two shots in 9:27 of ice time. Florida now has just 11 available forwards on the roster unless Eetu Luostarinen (personal) is ready to return Thursday versus Edmonton. It wouldn't be surprising if the Panthers recall a forward before that game.

FEBRUARY 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in NHL season debut Sourdif scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Predators.

Impact Sourdif got the call-up and drew in for his first NHL contest of the season due to the absences of Eetu Luostarinen (personal) and Matthew Tkachuk (groin). The 22-year-old Sourdif made the most of his 9:27 of ice time, scoring the game-winning goal at 4:21 of the second period. It was his fourth NHL appearance overall. The third-round pick from 2020 may not be on the NHL roster for long, but he's played pretty well with 22 points over 29 contests with AHL Charlotte this season. He could become a full-time NHL player in a year or two.

Recalled by Florida Sourdif was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Monday, David Dwork of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Sourdif made three appearances for the Panthers last year, but he hasn't yet appeared in an NHL game this season. However, he'll enter the lineup for Tuesday's game in Nashville since Eetu Luostarinen (personal) will be unavailable.

FEBRUARY 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sent down to minors Sourdif (upper body) was reassigned to AHL Charlotte on Thursday.

Impact Sourdif started the 2024-25 campaign on non-roster injured reserve due to his upper-body injury but appears to be no worse for the wear. Last year, the 22-year-old center saw action in a mere three regular-season contests in which he notched five hits, two blocks and two shots while averaging 8:50 of ice time. With his injury concerns behind him, Sourdif should spend the majority of the campaign in the minors but could earn the occasional call-up.

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Beginning as non-roster Sourdif (undisclosed) was placed on season-opening injured reserve Monday, per PuckPedia.

Impact Sourdif was deemed week-to-week in late September and is not close to returning. The 22-year-old forward was in contention for a roster spot to begin camp, but his absence will likely lead to him heading to AHL Charlotte once he's healthy.

OCTOBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Return not imminent Sourdif (undisclosed) remains week-to-week and is not close to returning, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports Friday.

Impact Given this update, Sourdif shouldn't be expected to be in the lineup for Opening Night against the Bruins on Tuesday. Other than saying he's not close to returning, the team hasn't provided a ton of guidance as to when the 22-year-old center might be cleared to play. Once given the all-clear, Sourdif will likely be heading to the minors where he racked up 38 points in 58 regular-season contests last year.
