Rangers' Brendan Brisson: Loaned to Hartford
Rotowire
Brisson was assigned to AHL Hartford on Tuesday.
After posting an assist across three appearances with the Rangers, Brisson will return to the AHL for the time being. His audition at the highest level mimicked his solid play in the AHL, where he has 13 goals, 10 assists and 73 shots on net across 46 games this season. The 24-year-old forward will likely have a chance to be recalled at some point later in the season with the Rangers struggling to find consistent scoring depth.

Rotowire

Rangers' Brendan Brisson: Stays warm with three-point effort
Rotowire
Brisson scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Hartford's 4-1 win over Bridgeport on Saturday.

For the season, Brisson has nine goals, four assists, 48 shots on net and a minus-16 rating over 30 appearances, and he's lacked the necessary consistency to get an NHL call-up.

Rangers' Brendan Brisson: Pots pair in AHL win
Rotowire
Brisson scored twice in AHL Hartford's 5-2 win over Bridgeport on Saturday.
Brisson had gone six games without a point prior to Saturday. The 24-year-old forward's stock has fallen during his time in the Rangers' organization -- he has eight goals, two assists and a minus-15 rating over 28 appearances this season. Brisson has fallen behind some of the Rangers' younger forward prospects, and it's unclear if he'll see a call-up during 2025-26.

Rangers' Brendan Brisson: Lands on waivers Tuesday
Rotowire
Brisson was placed on waivers by the Rangers on Tuesday, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.
Brisson is expected to clear waivers, at which point he'll be reassigned to AHL Hartford. The 23-year-old was facing an uphill battle to make the Opening Night roster, but he should be in the mix for a call-up or two during the season. Still, without a regular NHL role, Brisson won't offer much in the way of fantasy value this season.

Rangers' Brendan Brisson: Inks one-year deal
Rotowire
Brisson signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Rangers on Sunday, per PuckPedia.
Brisson spent much of the 2024-25 regular season in the Golden Knights' organization, and he was dealt to the Rangers in a swap for Reilly Smith in March. The 23-year-old Brisson didn't appear in a game with New York, as he finished out the year with AHL Hartford, posting two goals, four helpers and a minus-9 rating over 16 outings. His new deal is a two-way contract, so he'll likely be limited to time with the Wolf Pack again this coming season, unless injuries open up a spot at the NHL level. The California native will be a restricted free agent after the 2025-26 campaign.
Brisson and a 2025 third-round pick were acquired by the Rangers from Vegas on Thursday in exchange for Reilly Smith, per Larry Brooks of the New York Post.
Brisson had no points in nine outings with the Golden Knights this season. He also appeared in 45 games with AHL Henderson, scoring five goals and 19 points. The 23-year-old was selected with the No. 29 overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. He's expected to report to AHL Hartford.

Rotowire
Brisson is not currently on the Golden Knights' roster, per the NHL media site Tuesday.
Brisson is pointless in his nine NHL games this year while registering seven shots, nine hits and a minus-3 rating while averaging 9:52 of ice time. With Brisson down in the minors, the Knights brought up Raphael Lavoie, who is expected to be on the roster for Tuesday's clash with Dallas.

Golden Knights' Brendan Brisson: Recalled from Henderson

Brisson hasn't been with the NHL club since the end of October, but he was called up to provide additional depth, along with Tanner Laczynski. Over seven appearances for Vegas this year, Brisson hasn't gotten on the scoresheet but has recorded seven hits and a minus-3 rating while averaging 10:11 of ice time.

Golden Knights' Brendan Brisson: Heads to minors
Rotowire
Brisson was reassigned to AHL Henderson on Thursday.
Brisson has no points, seven shots and seven hits across seven appearances with Vegas in 2024-25. Although he's heading to the minors for now, it wouldn't be surprising to see him back with the Golden Knights later in the campaign.

Golden Knights' Brendan Brisson: One of each in win
Rotowire
Brisson scored a goal on five shots, added an assist and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 6-1 preseason win over the Avalanche.
Brisson enjoyed his best game of the preseason in this one as he continues his long-shot push for an Opening Night roster spot. The 22-year-old had eight points in 15 games with the Golden Knights last year, but he didn't appear in the postseason. Brisson has some factors working against him this fall -- Tanner Laczynski and Zach Aston-Reese have also played well, and Brisson is waivers-exempt, which makes it easier to trim him from the roster.
Golden Knights' Brendan Brisson: Headlines Black Aces call-ups
Rotowire
Brisson, Grigori Denisenko, Byron Froese, Kaedan Korczak, Dysin Mayo, Mason Morelli, Isaiah Saville, Christoffer Sedoff and Jesper Vikman were all recalled from AHL Henderson on Wednesday, per CapFriendly.
Brisson posted eight points in 15 NHL outings during the regular season. While none of these call-ups should be expected to see much playing time during the Golden Knights' playoff run, Brisson likely has the best chance of drawing in should injuries pile up. Henderson failed to qualify for the AHL playoffs, giving Vegas a chance to bolster its reserves.
