Konsta Helenius - NHL News & Rumors | FOX Sports

Reassigned after Thursday's game Helenius was reassigned to AHL Rochester on Thursday.

Impact Helenius will get steady playing time with Rochester while the NHL is on its Olympic break. The 19-year-old has four points in his first nine NHL contests. If the team is still hurting up front after the break, Helenius would seem to be a likely candidate to return to the big club.

First three points of career Helenius scored a goal and recorded two assists in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Predators.

Impact Helenius made his NHL debut on Monday after being promoted Jan. 15, and it only took him two games to leave his mark on the scoresheet. The 19-year-old winger is currently playing in the third line, but if he adjusts quickly to the pace of the NHL, he could be in line for a bigger role in the second half of the season. Don't expect Helenius to crack the scoresheet on a regular basis, but he's someone to have on your radar in dynasty formats due to his outstanding potential as a 19-year-old.

Racks up three points Wednesday Helenius scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Rochester's 6-1 win over Belleville on Wednesday.

Impact Helenius has a point in 10 of Rochester's last 11 games, earning five goals and eight assists in that stretch. The 19-year-old has acclimated well to North America over the last two seasons. He had 35 points in 65 regular-season outings as a rookie last year, and he's up to nine goals, 23 points and 73 shots on net through 25 appearances this season. The Sabres will still want to let him dominate the AHL for a while before giving him a shot at an NHL job.

Dominant in AHL win Helenius scored twice on six shots and added two assists in AHL Rochester's 4-0 win over Laval on Friday.

Impact Prior to Friday, Helenius was off to a slow start. He now has five points and 19 shots over six games with the Americans. The 19-year-old is playing above his age group, but it would still look good if he can improve on the 14-goal, 35-point performance he had for Rochester over 65 regular-season games in 2024-25.
