Ryan Ufko - NHL News & Rumors | FOX Sports

Earns three points in AHL win Ufko scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Milwaukee's 7-3 win over Manitoba on Thursday.

Impact Ufko continues to be excellent at the AHL level. He's been especially good lately with two goals and seven assists over his last five outings. The defenseman has a total of nine goals and 33 points over 32 appearances this season, which makes it look like it'll only be a matter of time before he gets a look with the Predators.

Logs three assists Ufko posted three assists in AHL Milwaukee's 3-2 overtime win over Grand Rapids on Wednesday.

Impact It's been hard for any team to beat the Griffins this year, but Ufko played a big role in helping the Admirals do just that. With five points over his last two contests, Ufko looks to have shaken off a four-game slump. Overall, he's at eight goals, 21 assists, 61 shots on net and a minus-3 rating over 29 outings this season, putting him one point shy of matching his total from 72 regular-season games a year ago.

Picks up trio of points Ufko scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Milwaukee's 6-4 loss to Chicago on Friday.

Impact Ufko has two goals and five assists during a five-game point streak. He's had two really good stretches this season, sandwiched around a quiet run. He's at six goals, 20 points, 37 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 19 appearances. He had just 30 points in 72 regular-season outings a year ago, and it seems to be only a matter of time before the Predators give him a look at the NHL level.

Another strong performance Ufko scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Milwaukee's 4-1 win over Chicago on Wednesday.

Impact This was Ufko's second three-point effort within the last week. The defenseman is up to three goals and nine points in five AHL outings this season. While a call-up to the Predators is not imminent, he could be in contention for one should Roman Josi (upper body) or Adam Wilsby (lower body) land on injured reserve any time soon.

Strong game for Admirals Ufko scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Milwaukee's 6-2 win over San Jose on Friday.

Impact Ufko looks to have taken a step up on offense this season with five points through three games. He had eight goals and 30 points in 72 regular-season outings as an AHL rookie in 2024-25. Ufko also made his NHL debut for the Predators in April, logging 15:37 of ice time against Utah. While he's a bit undersized for a defenseman, he could still earn a call-up if his offense remains strong.

Recalled by Nashville Ufko was recalled from AHL Milwaukee on Monday, Nick Kieser of 102.5 ESPN Nashville reports.

Impact Ufko signed a three-year, entry-level contract with Nashville in late March, and he'll join the Predators ahead of their final two regular-season games. He's made 71 appearances for Milwaukee this year, racking up eight goals and 21 assists. Ufko could make his NHL debut Monday against Utah if Andreas Englund, who wasn't at the team's morning skate, is unable to suit up.

Signs three-year deal Ufko agreed to terms on a three-year, entry-level contract with Nashville on Friday.

Impact Ufko racked up 10 goals and 16 assists in 37 games for UMass this season and will now forgo his senior campaign to turn pro. The 20-year-old blueliner figures to spend a year or two developing his game with AHL Milwaukee before getting a chance to break into the Preds' lineup. With his collegiate career behind him, Ufko will likely sign an amateur tryout deal to finish the year with the Admirals.
