Marc Del Gaizo - NHL News & Rumors

Inks two-year deal Del Gaizo signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Rangers on Wednesday.

Impact Del Gaizo and Utica's Ethan Edwards provided unexpected sparks from the blue line in this contest, with each defenseman scoring twice.

Headed to AHL Del Gaizo was loaned to AHL Laval on Tuesday.

Impact Del Gaizo was recalled from the minors Monday, so his stint with the big club didn't last long. The 2019 fourth-round pick has yet to appear in a game with the Canadiens this season. It's possible he's promoted again soon due to the team now having only six healthy blueliners on the roster, unless Montreal is interested in recalling someone else to fill a depth role.

Brought up from minors Del Gaizo was elevated from AHL Laval on Monday.

Impact Del Gaizo will likely serve as an emergency depth option for the Habs' trip to Columbus on Monday, but is unlikely to get into the lineup ahead of Arber Xhekaj or Alexandre Carrier. Last season, the 26-year-old Del Gaizo saw action in 46 regular-season games with the Predators. It seems unlikely the blueliner will see that much ice time this year, given the Habs' blue line depth.

Sent down to minors Del Gaizo was reassigned to AHL Laval on Friday.

Impact Del Gaizo hasn't appeared in an NHL game this season, so his return to the minors shouldn't come as a surprise. Considering the 26-year-old blueliner has managed a lone helper in six minor-league tilts with the Rocket, he figures to serve primarily as an emergency depth option for the organization moving forward.

NOVEMBER 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Elevated from minors Del Gazio was promoted from AHL Laval on Wednesday.

Impact Del Gazio's elevation to the NHL roster will provide the team with an emergency blueliner should the need arise in the lead-up to Thursday's clash with the Devils. The 26-year-old defenseman hasn't offered much offensively in the minors, recording just one point in six games with the Rocket. As such, it wouldn't come as a surprise to see Del Gazio sitting in the press box as a healthy scratch against New Jersey.
