Mark Pysyk - NHL News & Rumors

Released from PTO Pysyk was released from his professional tryout agreement by the Ducks on Friday.

Impact Pysyk joined Anaheim on a PTO in mid-September but was unable to earn a spot on the Opening Night roster. He made 37 appearances in the AHL last season, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him play there again this year.

Pens PTO with Ducks Pysyk signed a professional tryout agreement with Anaheim on Thursday, according to Kevin Allen of Detroit Hockey Now.

Impact Pysyk last played in the NHL during the 2021-22 season, when he had three goals, nine assists and 85 blocked shots in 68 regular-season games. Pysyk played 37 AHL games last season, picking up four assists. He is a longshot to make the Ducks lineup and likely will play once again in the AHL.

Impact Pysyk will give the Flames a depth defenseman, after they dealt Nikita Zadorov to Vancouver on Thursday. Pysyk signed a professional tryout agreement with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton a month ago and played eight games, picking up one assist. Pysyk missed the 2022-23 campaign after undergoing Achilles surgery in July of 2022.

Signs PTO with AHL Penguins Pysyk (lower body)inked a professional tryout agreement with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.

Impact Pysyk had a PTO with Pittsburgh during training camp but was unable to get into any game action after suffering the injury early in camp. Pysyk missed the entire 2022-23 season after undergoing Achilles surgery in July of 2022. Look for Pysyk to get in ample AHL game action before Pittsburgh decides if he is good enough to play again in the NHL.

Skates Thursday Pysyk (lower body) skated prior to Pittsburgh's morning skate Thursday, though coach Mike Sullivan told reporters, "His status hasn't changed," per Penguins play-by-play announcer...

Impact Pysyk technically remains unsigned by the team after getting hurt during training camp while on a PTO. In addition to getting back to 100 percent, the club would need to create a spot on the 23-man roster to sign the veteran blueliner. At this point, given his lengthy recovery, it's possible Pysyk will sign an AHL-only contract once cleared to play in order to get some game action in before the Penguins would consider an NHL deal.

Dealing with lower-body injury According to coach Mike Sullivan, Pysyk will be out "longer term" with a lower-body injury, source reports.

Impact Pysyk, who is attending Pittsburgh's training camp on a PTO, missed the entirety of the 2022-23 season with an Achilles injury, so it obviously doesn't bode well for his chances of securing a contract with a Penguins that he's already expected to miss extended time with a lower-body issue.

Gets PTO from Pens Pysyk signed a professional tryout agreement with the Penguins on Tuesday, per CapFriendly.

Impact Pysyk missed all of 2022-23 due to an Achilles injury he suffered last July after signing with the Red Wings. The 31-year-old defenseman had 12 points in 68 outings with the Sabres in 2021-22, and he's shown the versatility to play either as a third-pairing defenseman or bottom-six forward in previous years. If Pysyk can earn a contract from the Penguins, he would bolster their organizational defensive depth.
