• Senators' Kurtis MacDermid: Snags first helper

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  MacDermid notched an assist and two PIM in Monday's 3-2 overtime win over the Jets. MacDermid has played in three consecutive games for just the second time all year. The 31-year-old is still averaging just 4:18 of ice time over 12 appearances, but by earning a point, he's doing better on offense than he did with the Devils in 2024-25. He's added just two shots on net, 11 hits, five blocked shots and 18 PIM.

• Senators' Kurtis MacDermid: In part-time role to start season

  30D ago • By RotoWire

  MacDermid was a healthy scratch Thursday versus the Ducks and has suited up just eight times in 20 games to begin the season. MacDermid's role is to be an enforcer, but with toughness throughout the lineup, the Senators don't need him to dress every game. He's at 16 PIM, eight hits, four blocked shots, two shots on net and a minus-3 rating through his eight appearances. MacDermid is averaging just 4:25 of ice time, so even when he plays, he's unlikely to put up offense.

• Senators' Kurtis MacDermid: Sent to Ottawa

  10/03/2025 • By RotoWire

  MacDermid was traded to the Senators from the Devils on Friday in exchange for Zack MacEwen. MacDermid made 23 regular-season appearances for the Devils last year, and he was held without a point while racking up 40 hits, 23 PIM and eight blocked shots. He'll likely have a chance to carve out a part-time role with his new team during the 2025-26 campaign.

• Devils' Kurtis MacDermid: Crowded out of lineup

  03/30/2025 • By RotoWire

  MacDermid has played in just two of the Devils' last 22 games after being scratched Saturday versus the Wild. MacDermid doesn't stand much of a chance at getting playing time unless the Devils rest their regulars once they clinch a playoff spot. The 31-year-old is one of 15 healthy forwards on the roster, and Cody Glass (undisclosed) is day-to-day. MacDermid has not recorded a point in 22 appearances, adding 23 PIM and 38 hits while averaging just 5:40 of ice time per game as an old-school enforcer.

• Devils' Kurtis MacDermid: Playing time fading

  02/27/2025 • By RotoWire

  MacDermid was scratched for the sixth straight game in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Avalanche. MacDermid didn't get into the lineup against his former team -- he had been with the Avalanche for parts of the last three seasons. The Devils' forward group is healthy right now, so unless head coach Sheldon Keefe decides he needs extra physicality in the lineup, MacDermid is likely to sit more often than not. He's still in search of his first point this season while adding six shots on net, 23 PIM and 37 hits over 21 appearances.
