Date News Advice
Nov. 20, 2025 Geertsen was scratched for the 15th time in 20 games in Wednesday's 6-2 loss to the Flames. - Geertsen played in four of the first six games of the year, but the 30-year-old hasn't carved out a regular role even amid a tough stretch of injuries for the Sabres. Even when he plays, he's averaged just 4:07 of ice time over five appearances while adding eight hits and 12 PIM. He's failed to record a point in 30 NHL outings, and the defenseman-turned-winger is unlikely to ever produce offense at the level necessary to help in fantasy. None
July 1, 2025 Geertsen inked a two-year, two-way contract with Buffalo on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Geertsen hasn't played in the NHL since the 2021-22 campaign when he logged 25 games for the Devils. In those appearances, the 30-year-old defenseman averaged a paltry 6:57 of ice time, understandably failing to register a point along the way. It's unlikely to get any better in Buffalo, as fantasy players should anticipate the Alberta native playing the majority of his games for AHL Rochester this year. None
Sept. 28, 2024 Geertsen was waived Saturday for the purpose of assigning him to AHL Henderson. - Geertsen recorded six goals and 108 PIM in 58 regular-season outings with AHL Henderson in 2023-24. He will likely spend most, if not all, of the upcoming campaign in the minors. None
July 1, 2023 Geertsen signed a two-year, two-way deal with the Golden Knights on Saturday, per PuckPedia. - Geertsen hasn't played in the NHL since 2021 when he was held scoreless while racking up 58 hits in 25 games with the Devils. The 28-year-old defenseman will likely spend most of his time in the AHL, serving as organizational depth for Vegas. None
Oct. 9, 2022 Geertsen was waived Sunday, per CapFriendly. - Geertsen was held without a point in 25 games as a rookie last year. The 27-year-old should spend most of his time with AHL Binghamton this season. None
July 13, 2022 Geertsen signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Devils on Wednesday, per PuckPedia. - Geertsen failed to record a point in 25 NHL contests last season, but he didn't spend any time with AHL Binghamtom. The 27-year-old blueliner is likely a rotational option at best for the Devils, and he could begin 2022-23 in the minors. None
March 5, 2022 Geertsen had four hits and two PIM in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Rangers. - Geertsen never dressed for an NHL game with the Rangers but was in the organization for the previous couple seasons before moving to New Jersey, so it wasn't surprising to see him bring a little extra physicality in this one. That's how Geertsen has to play to stay in the lineup, as he's certainly not in there for his offense -- Geertsen's yet to record a point through 17 NHL appearances. None
Jan. 17, 2022 Geertsen cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Monday. - Geertsen has missed the last two games while in the protocols, bringing his total absences on the season to 21. The 26-year-old has averaged 7:06 of ice time and been held without a point over 12 appearances this season. He will likely return to a bottom-six role filling in during Dougie Hamilton's (jaw) absence. None
Jan. 7, 2022 The Devils placed Geertsen in COVID-19 protocols Friday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports. - Geertsen, who's been a healthy scratch four of the last five games, will be unavailable Saturday and possibly longer and he recovers from the virus. Once healthy, the 26-year-old figures to be New Jersey's fourth right defenseman until Dougie Hamilton (jaw, COVID-19) returns from injured reserve. None
Dec. 3, 2021 Geertsen skated 5:22 of uneventful ice time in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Wild. - Geertsen is a brawler whom the Devils like to deploy on the fourth line to provide a physical presence. The 26-year-old Geertsen now has seven NHL games under his belt, with all of them coming this season. He has two shots and 24 PIM without a point. None
