Rejoins NHL club Sabourin (suspension) was recalled from AHL Syracuse on Tuesday.

Impact Sabourin will finish out his four-game suspension Tuesday versus the Predators. It remains to be seen whether he'll remain with the big club after Tuesday's contest, as he appeared in just four games with the Sharks across the 2023-24 and 2024-25 regular seasons.

Sent back to minors Sabourin (suspension) was reassigned to AHL Syracuse on Friday, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Sabourin will return to the minors a day after being recalled by the Lightning, although he did serve the third game of his four-game suspension during Thursday's matchup against Chicago. He'll still be eligible to play for Syracuse, but he could rejoin the NHL club at some point soon to officially complete his suspension.

Recalled by Tampa Bay Sabourin (suspension) was recalled from AHL Syracuse on Thursday.

Impact Sabourin spent last weekend with the Lightning and served half of his four-game suspension at the NHL level, and he'll rejoin Tampa Bay ahead of Thursday's game against Chicago. However, it's not yet clear whether he'll remain with the Lightning for Saturday's game against the Ducks in order to complete his suspension. Over four appearances in the AHL this year, Sabourin has recorded a goal, an assist, seven PIM and a plus-2 rating.

Assigned to minors Sabourin (suspension) was returned to AHL Syracuse on Sunday.

Impact Sabourin received a four-game suspension in Tampa Bay's preseason finale against Florida, and he has served half of it. He could return to Tampa Bay before Thursday's matchup against Chicago to work on completing his NHL ban for roughing Florida's Aaron Ekblad on Oct. 4. While he is eligible to play in the AHL, he can't appear in a game with the Lightning until his suspension is over, and he can only serve his suspension when he's on Tampa Bay's roster.

Up from minors Sabourin (suspension) was summoned from AHL Syracuse on Friday.

Impact Sabourin was given a four-game suspension for roughing Florida's Aaron Ekblad during a preseason game Oct. 4, and he hasn't served that punishment yet. Assuming Sabourin stays with Tampa Bay, he'll be eligible to play Oct. 26 versus Vegas. The 33-year-old Sabourin can't serve his suspension unless he's on the NHL roster, so any time he gets demoted without completing his punishment pauses the process. NHL suspensions don't make you ineligible for minor-league duty, though, and Sabourin has a goal and an assist in two appearances with Syracuse in 2025-26.

Suspended, demoted to minors Sabourin was handed a four-game suspension by the Department of Player Safety on Monday before being sent down to AHL Syracuse.

Impact Sabourin could still be recalled ahead of Thursday's Opening Night matchup with Ottawa, as the Bolts are likely trying to maximize their LTIR benefit for Nick Paul (upper body). If Sabourin does start the year in the minors, he'll need to serve his suspension at the NHL level before he can get into a game.

OCTOBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Having a hearing for roughing The NHL Department of Player Safety announced Sunday that Sabourin will have a hearing for roughing Florida's Aaron Ekblad in Saturday's preseason game.

Impact Sabourin received a match penalty at the 2:18 mark of the first period for going after Ekblad. The 33-year-old Sabourin had 10 goals, 25 points and 111 PIM across 68 regular-season appearances with AHL San Jose in 2024-25. In the likely event that he lands a suspension, he will need to be on Tampa Bay's roster to serve it. However, he would still be eligible to play for AHL Syracuse during that time.

Returned to minors Sabourin was returned to AHL Syracuse on Wednesday.

Impact Sabourin was promoted to bolster the Bolts' roster ahead of Tuesday's preseason matchup with the Panthers but now will head back to the minors. Over the last two seasons, the 33-year-old winger has logged just four NHL contests for the Sharks. Now with his fourth NHL franchise, Sabourin figures to remain primarily a minor-league option for the club.

Called up from minors Sabourin was recalled from AHL Syracuse on Tuesday.

Impact Sabourin likely will find himself shifting between levels for much of the 2025-26 season, especially when there are injuries among the forward group. Whether the 33-year-old winger makes the Opening Night roster for the Bolts will likely depend on the health of Pontus Holmberg (undisclosed).

Hits waivers Sabourin was put on waivers with the intent to assign him to AHL Syracuse on Sunday.

Impact Sabourin collected 10 goals, 25 points and 111 PIM across 68 regular-season games with AHL San Jose in 2024-25. After signing a one-year, two-way deal with Tampa Bay in the summer, he will likely be in the minors for the majority of the 2025-26 campaign.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Inks one-year deal Sabourin signed a one-year, two-way contract with Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Impact Sabourin compiled 10 goals, 25 points and 111 PIM across 68 regular-season games with AHL San Jose in 2024-25. The 32-year-old forward has two goals, eight points and 58 PIM in 47 career NHL regular-season appearances. However, he will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors.

MARCH 18, 2025 • NHL.COM

Shipped back to minors Sabourin was reassigned to AHL San Jose on Wednesday.

Impact Sabourin saw action in one NHL game during his recent stint with the Sharks, registering two hits, one block and a minus-2 rating in 10:27 of ice time. The veteran winger's demotion could be an indication that one of the team's injured forwards is nearing a return to action -- though another move could be made prior to Thursday's matchup with Seattle.

JANUARY 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled by NHL club Sabourin was recalled by the Sharks on Friday.

Impact Sabourin was sent to the minors ahead of the regular season, and he's logged five goals, eight assists and a minus-5 rating over 35 appearances with AHL San Jose this season. He'll rejoin the NHL club after Ty Dellandrea (upper body) was placed on injured reserve, but Sabourin will likely serve mainly as a depth option in Dellandrea's absence.

JANUARY 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on waivers Sabourin was designated for waivers by San Jose on Wednesday.

Impact Sabourin has appeared in just 46 regular-season contests for Ottawa, Toronto and San Jose despite having made the jump to the professional ranks back in 2014-15. At this point, the veteran winger figures to serve primarily in a leadership role with the Barracuda, though he could be called up from the minors if needed.

OCTOBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to AHL affiliate Sabourin was reassigned to AHL San Jose on Tuesday.

Impact Sabourin has been a healthy scratch for four of the seven games he's been on the Sharks' roster for since being recalled Jan. 8, so this move doesn't come as a surprise. The 31-year-old winger will remain a non-factor in all fantasy formats in 2023-24.

JANUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from minors Sabourin was elevated from AHL San Jose on Monday.

Impact Sabourin will join the NHL roster for the first time this season, having spent the entire campaign in the minors. With the Barracuda, the 31-year-old forward has generated nine goals and four assists in 29 contests. Considering the Ontario native has just 43 games of NHL experience, with his last game coming during the 2021-22 season with Ottawa, fantasy players probably shouldn't be banking on him sticking around long-term.
