  • Bjugstad logged two assists in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Golden Knights. Bjugstad set up goals by Logan Cooley and Alex Kerfoot in this contest. These were Bjugstad's first two points of the year, coming in his fourth appearance after he missed eight games due to an upper-body injury. The 32-year-old center has added six shots on net, nine hits, three blocked shots, two PIM and an even plus-minus rating. Bjugstad offers modest scoring and decent all-around production as long as he can maintain a middle-six role.

  • Bjugstad (upper body) delivered four hits in 12:49 of ice time in a 3-2 loss to the Kings on Saturday. Bjugstad had missed the first eight games of 2024-25 before making his season debut in Saturday's matchup. His return solidifies the middle ice for Utah. He will lock down the third-line center role behind Barrett Hayton and Logan Cooley, and he should start making an offensive impact once he gets his game legs under him.

  • Bjugstad (upper body) will be taken off injured reserve and play Saturday against the Kings, per Brogan Houston of Deseret News Sports. Bjugstad missed Utah's opening eight games because of the injury. He had 22 goals and 45 points in 76 appearances with the Coyotes in 2023-24. Now that Bjugstad is healthy, he'll likely serve in a middle-six capacity.

  • Head coach Andre Tourigny said Friday that Bjugstad (upper body) has resumed contact drills and is 7-10 days away from returning, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports. Bjugstad began the 2024-25 season on injured reserve and was initially expected to be sidelined until the end of November, but it appears as though he'll be in the mix to return to action in late October. While the 32-year-old will still miss a few more games, it's encouraging that he's progressing in his recovery and has developed a return timetable. Over 76 appearances for the Coyotes last year, Bjugstad tallied 22 goals and 45 points while averaging 17:27 of ice time.

  • Bjugstad (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, per The Hockey News. Bjugstad has already been ruled out for October, so this move is not a surprise. If Utah needs additional cap space, Bjugstad may eventually be transferred to long-term injured reserve.
