|---|---|---|
| Jan. 25, 2025 | Pickering was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre on Saturday. - Pickering's appeared in 25 games for the Penguins this year, logging a goal, three points and a minus-5 rating. The rookie blueliner will likely focus on developing while seeing increased ice time in the AHL, though he could very well return to Pittsburgh later this season. Forward Bokondji Imama was recalled in a corresponding move. | None |
| Jan. 21, 2025 | Pickering provided an assist and two PIM in Monday's 5-1 win over the Kings. - The helper was Pickering's first point in 10 outings since he returned from a concussion. The 20-year-old blueliner has mostly seen third-pairing minutes since his return, offering limited chances for him to make a large impact in any aspect. He has three points, 13 shots on net, 13 hits, 18 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over his first 24 NHL contests. | None |
| Jan. 3, 2025 | Pickering (concussion) is considered a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Panthers, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports. - Pickering fully participated in Tuesday's morning skate before being ruled out, and the Penguins' medical staff will want to see how he feels in the hours leading up to Friday's puck drop before determining his status against the Panthers. The 20-year-old made 14 appearances before sustaining his injury, racking up a goal, an assist, 12 blocked shots and six hits while averaging 15:47 of ice time. | None |
| Dec. 31, 2024 | Pickering (concussion) will remain sidelined for Tuesday's game against the Red Wings despite fully participating in the Penguins' morning skate, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports. - Pickering has been sidelined due to a concussion for the past week and a half, but his full participation in Tuesday's practice suggests that he's trending in the right direction. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return to action, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him cleared for game action in early January. | None |
| Dec. 23, 2024 | Pickering (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday. - Pittsburgh brought up Nate Clurman from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in a corresponding move. Pickering will miss at least the next two games, starting with Monday's matchup versus Philadelphia, after being injured in Saturday's 3-0 loss to New Jersey. | None |
| Dec. 21, 2024 | Pickering won't return to Saturday's tilt against New Jersey because of an upper-body injury. - Pickering had one block in 10:53 of ice time before he left the game. He has a goal and two points in 14 appearances in 2024-25. If Pickering can't play Monday versus Philadelphia, Ryan Graves will probably draw back into the lineup. | None |
| Dec. 3, 2024 | Pickering scored a goal Tuesday in a 5-4 overtime win over Florida. - It was his first NHL goal in his sixth game. Pickering fired a wrist shot from the point past a screen from Michael Bunting. At 20 years and 311 days, he becomes the 11th youngest defenseman in Penguins history to score a goal. Pickering was picked 21st overall in the 2022 NHL Draft and is looking like a natural on the Pens blue line. | None |
| Nov. 30, 2024 | Pickering (illness) will be a game-time decision versus Calgary on Saturday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports. - Pickering has sat out the last two games. He has one assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and one hit in four appearances this season. If Pickering returns to the lineup against the Flames, Ryan Shea or Jack St. Ivany could be a healthy scratch. | None |
| Nov. 29, 2024 | Pickering (illness) will miss Friday's tilt against Boston. - Pickering has an assist, one hit and two blocks in four outings in 2024-25. This will be Pittsburgh's second straight game without him in the lineup. When available, Pickering might serve on the third pairing. | None |
| Nov. 28, 2024 | Pickering (illness) missed practice Thursday and is considered questionable ahead of Friday's tilt versus Boston, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports. - Pickering was unable to play Wednesday against the Canucks with his illness. Coach Mike Sullivan stated that Pickering is still being evaluated and may not travel with the Penguins to Boston on Friday. Pickering has one assist in four games this season. If he is unable to go, look for Jack St. Ivany to remain in the lineup. | None |
| Nov. 27, 2024 | Pickering (illness) won't play Wednesday versus the Canucks. - Pickering has been gaining a foothold in the lineup, playing in four straight games. The 20-year-old will sit out at least one game, and it's unclear if he'll be ready to return versus the Bruins on Friday. | None |
| Nov. 17, 2024 | Pickering logged an assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Sharks. - While it was a fairly tame first assignment, Pickering was able to handle third-pairing duties in the absence of Kris Letang (illness). It didn't take long for Pickering to earn his first point, as he helped out on a Jesse Puljujarvi tally in the first period. Pickering won't solve all of the Penguins' defensive problems, but he has a chance to make a push to stick around after failing to make the team out of camp. The 20-year-old blueliner is unlikely to be a future fantasy stud, but he's a heady player who should be a benefit in his own zone now and in future seasons for Pittsburgh. | None |
| Nov. 15, 2024 | Pickering was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday. - Pickering's promotion could be an indication there is an injury or illness to one of the Pens' blueliners, though it might also be an attempt to see if anything can stem the flow of opposition goals considering Pittsburgh is giving up 3.83 per game (second worst in the league). If the 6-foot-4 Pickering does get into Friday's matchup with Columbus it figures to be in a third-pairing role -- likely at the expense of Ryan Shea. | None |
| Oct. 10, 2023 | Pickering (undisclosed) was assigned to the WHL's Swift Current Broncos on Monday. - Pickering has evidently put the undisclosed injury he was dealing with at the start of training camp behind him. The 2022 first-round pick will likely spend the entirety of the 2023-24 campaign in the WHL. | None |
| Sept. 14, 2023 | Pickering is battling an undisclosed injury, according to Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com. - The hope is Pickering will be available for the start of Pittsburgh's training camp, which begins Sept. 21. The 19-year-old defenseman had nine goals and 45 points in 61 WHL games with Swift Current last season. | None |
| Oct. 1, 2022 | Pickering was reassigned to WHL Swift Current on Saturday, per CapFriendly. - Pickering was limited by an upper-body injury in training camp and didn't play in a preseason game. With little chance to get up to speed, he'll instead begin the year in the junior ranks, where he'll likely spend most or all of 2022-23. | None |
| Sept. 15, 2022 | Pickering sustained an upper-body injury that will limit him during the Penguins' rookie camp, Pens Inside Scoop reports Thursday. - Pickering was selected by the Penguins with the 21st overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft and should be considered a dark horse candidate to secure a spot on the 23-man roster for Opening Night. If his upper-body injury lingers into the start of training camp, it will certainly hurt his chances as well. | None |
