Ozzy Wiesblatt - NHL News & Rumors

Lands on waiver list Wiesblatt has been placed on waivers by Nashville on Wednesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Impact A first-round pick who was later traded and signed a two-year, two-way deal with Nashville, Wiesblatt still has more offensive upside than most names on this list. He's worth stashing on watch lists in deeper keeper formats given the pedigree, even if this particular move sends him to the minors for now.

First point since return Wiesblatt recorded an assist and eight hits in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.

Impact Wiesblatt has played in just eight of the Predators' last 14 games after returning from an upper-body injury Jan. 20 versus the Sabres. The 23-year-old's playing time should improve since Nashville has done well to shed veteran contracts ahead of the trade deadline. Wiesblatt is up to five points, 24 shots on net, 34 PIM and 84 hits over 32 appearances.

Removed from IR Wiesblatt (upper body) is no longer listed on injured reserve ahead of Tuesday's home matchup versus Buffalo, according to the NHL media site.

Impact Wiesblatt was classified as a game-time decision earlier Tuesday, but his removal from injured reserve bodes well for his availability against the Sabres. Reid Schaefer was optioned to AHL Milwaukee to make room for Wiesblatt on the active roster. If the 23-year-old Wiesblatt ends up not being in the lineup Tuesday, his next chance to play will come Thursday against Ottawa.

Deemed game-time decision Wiesblatt (upper body) was named a game-time decision ahead of Tuesday's clash against the Sabres, per Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site.

Impact Wiesblatt has been sidelined since Dec. 4 with an upper-body injury. When healthy, the 23-year-old forward has offered physicality up the center of the ice with 60 hits and 10 blocks to go along with four points in 24 games this season. If he is later activated off injured reserve and inserted into Tuesday's lineup, he will likely serve in a fourth-line role, limiting his fantasy value.

Lands on injured reserve Wiesblatt (upper body) is expected to miss 8-10 weeks and has been placed on injured reserve Friday.

Impact Based on his timeline, Wiesblatt likely will be out of action through the Olympic break in February, though it's possible he gets into a game or two before then. IN 24 outings this year, the 23-year-old winger has tallied one goal on 22 shots, three assists and 60 hits while averaging 10:38 of ice time. Tyson Jost figures to see the biggest uptick in ice time with Wiesblatt out of action.

Suffers upper-body injury Wiesblatt won't return to Thursday's game against Florida because of an upper-body injury.

Impact Wiesblatt logged just 15 seconds of ice time before exiting the game. If he can't play Saturday in Carolina, then Tyson Jost will probably draw into the lineup.

Nets first NHL goal Wiesblatt scored a goal in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Flames.

Impact It was his first NHL goal. Wiesblatt redirected a Michael Bunting pass past Devin Cooley late in the second period. He has 60 hits in 23 games, so he might help in deep leagues if you count that stat. But don't expect much offense from Wiesblatt -- he has one goal and three assists in 23 games this season.

The 23-year-old winger is at three helpers, 17 shots on net, 17 PIM, 48 hits and a minus-9 rating through 19 outings overall. Wiesblatt continues to fill a fourth-line role for the Predators, giving him minimal fantasy appeal in redraft formats.
