Waived by Winnipeg Di Giuseppe was placed on waivers by the Jets on Monday, James Mirtle of The Athletic reports.

Impact Di Giuseppe joined the Jets on a two-way contract in July, but he was unable to land a spot on the team's Opening Night roster. He made 20 NHL appearances for the Canucks during the 2024-25 regular season, logging a goal, five assists, 54 hits, six blocked shots and four PIM while averaging 11:34 of ice time.

Signs in Winnipeg Di Giuseppe signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Jets on Tuesday, per PuckPedia.

Impact Di Giuseppe was limited to six points in 20 NHL games with the Canucks last season. He often finds himself able to carve out a role for at least part of a campaign, serving as a physical presence in a bottom-six role. He should help the Jets replenish the depth they lost in free agency.

Impact Di Giuseppe's role should remain fairly steady following Friday's trades, as the Canucks maintained the same number of NHL-level forwards. That said, the quality of the team's forward group is a little lower, so Di Giuseppe may have an easier time staying in the lineup. He has six points, 23 shots on net, 54 hits and a minus-2 rating over 20 appearances and will likely be a bottom-six option at least until Kiefer Sherwood (undisclosed) is activated from injured reserve.

Hands out helper Di Giuseppe logged an assist in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kraken.

Impact Di Giuseppe set up Conor Garland's second-period tally. With three helpers over six NHL appearances this season, Di Giuseppe has held his own when called upon to fill in. The 31-year-old forward has added five shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-1 rating. He's listed on the second line, but he's yet to exceed 14 minutes of ice time in a game so far, so he's functionally more like a bottom-six winger.

Summoned Friday Di Giuseppe was called up by Vancouver on Friday.

Impact Di Giuseppe was sent to the minors Monday for the length of the holiday break, but he's back with Vancouver ahead of the Canucks' game against Seattle on Saturday. Di Giuseppe has two assists in three outings with the Canucks in 2024-25.

Impact Di Giuseppe has a helper and eight hits over two NHL appearances this season. Head coach Rick Tocchet has plugged the 31-year-old forward right into a top-six role at even strength. Di Giuseppe's style is to be a heavy hitter who can chip in a little depth offense, but if he falters, Nils Hoglander or Max Sasson could get back into the lineup. Don't expect Di Giuseppe to score regularly enough to be an option in fantasy.

DECEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Di Giuseppe is goalless in 13 straight games in which he recorded one lone helper, four shots and six blocks while dishing out 36 hits. Given his offensive limitations, Di Giuseppe is far from a lock to suit up in Game 5 and could continue watching from the press box in favor of Linus Karlsson, Vasily Podkolzin or Nils Hoglander -- all of whom will no doubt be pushing for minutes.

MAY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing in Game 4 Di Giuseppe (personal) won't play Tuesday in Game 4 versus Edmonton, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.

In 51 regular-season outings, Di Giuseppe registered 10 points, 52 shots on net, 36 PIM and 94 hits. He'll likely stay in a bottom-six role during the postseason, if he's able to maintain his place in the lineup.

Impact Di Giuseppe went from a 26-game point drought to goals in consecutive contests after bending the twine in the first period.

Ends long drought with game-winner Di Giuseppe scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Di Giuseppe hadn't gotten on the scoresheet since Nov. 18, a span of 26 contests without a point. He was also scratched for 20 games during his lengthy slump, which was brought to a close with the game-winning goal Thursday. The 30-year-old has four goals, nine points, 48 shots on net, 81 hits, 34 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 45 appearances. While he saw some top-six usage early in the season, it's unlikely he gets back in that role any time soon.

MARCH 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ready to rock Di Giuseppe (personal) will return to action Saturday against Boston, according to Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.

Impact Di Giuseppe has eight points, 41 shots on goal and 71 hits in 39 games this season. He will replace Nils Aman in the lineup following a one-game absence.

FEBRUARY 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return before ASG Di Giuseppe (undisclosed) is not expected to return to the lineup before the NHL All-Star break, Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News reports Thursday.

Impact Di Giuseppe still hasn't started skating, so this extended timeline shouldn't come as a surprise. Even prior to getting hurt, the 30-year-old winger was a frequent healthy scratch, no doubt in part due to his 14-game pointless streak, As such, even once Di Giuseppe is cleared to return, he is unlikely to offer much in the way of fantasy impact.
