Addison signed an AHL-only contract with AHL Henderson on Thursday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Addison was in the Senators' training camp in September, but he didn't make their roster. The 24-year-old defenseman has displayed some power-play skills at the NHL level, but worries about his defense likely limited his market.

Calen Addison: Released from PTO
Rotowire
The Senators released Addison from his PTO on Saturday.
Addison was once highly regarded as an offensive force from the back end. He had three goals and 29 points, including 18 assists on the power play, in 62 regular-season games in 2022-23 for Minnesota. Unfortunately, Addison has fallen, managing only a goal and 16 helpers in 72 regular-season appearances between the Wild and Sharks in 2023-24. He will try to catch on somewhere, but he could spend the 2024-25 season in the minors.

Senators' Calen Addison: Secures tryout
Rotowire
Addison penned a professional tryout agreement with Ottawa on Thursday.
Addison saw action in 60 games for the Sharks last season in which he tallied one goal and 11 assists while averaging 17:21 of ice time. The 24-year-old blueliner didn't quite live up to his 2022-23 numbers when he posted 29 points in 62 contests while with the Wild. Still, the Manitoba native could be given some leeway for having struggled on the worst team in the league last year. If Ottawa can get 30 points out of Addison in 2024-25, he will be well worth whatever full contract the club might give him.

Calen Addison: Won't return to Sharks
Rotowire
Addison, who would have been a restricted free agent July 1, will not be re-signed by the Sharks, Max Miller of The Hockey News reports Monday. As such, Addison will be an unrestricted free agent when the market opens Monday.
Addison saw action in 60 games for San Jose this season in which he garnered one goal on 75 shots, 11 assists and six power-play points after he was traded from the Wild. While he may not rejoin the Sharks, the 24-year-old blueliner should earn a contract somewhere in the NHL. Depending on where he ends up, Addison could be in line for minutes with the No. 2 power-play unit, which would bolster his fantasy value.

Sharks' Calen Addison: Gathers assist
Rotowire
Addison notched an assist and went minus-2 in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Blackhawks.
Addison has three helpers over 12 outings in March. He's been able to stick in the lineup regularly this month after ending February with two healthy scratches. The 23-year-old blueliner is up to 17 points, 78 shots on net, 73 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-34 rating through 60 contests between the Sharks and the Wild. Nine of his points have come on the power play, but the Sharks' lack of consistent talent limits Addison's appeal, even with a spot on the first unit.

Rotowire
Addison notched a pair of assists in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Addison had gone 11 games without a point, and he sat as a healthy scratch for five contests in that span. With Henry Thrun (shoulder) reportedly close to a return, Addison will need to start producing something to stay in the lineup. Addison is at 14 points (eight on the power play), 60 shots on net, 51 blocked shots, 28 PIM and a minus-18 rating through 46 games between the Sharks and the Wild this season.

The defenseman is up to 12 points, 41 shots on net, 36 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a minus-15 rating over 34 appearances between the Sharks and the Wild this season.

Rotowire
Addison (lower body) is expected to miss Saturday's game against Vancouver, per the NHL media site.
It will be San Jose's third straight contest without Addison. He has a goal and 11 points in 31 outings this year. Marc-Edouard Vlasic will draw into the lineup Saturday, but he might be a healthy scratch Wednesday versus LA if Addison is able to return for that game.

Rotowire
Addison (lower body) will not play Thursday versus the Coyotes, Max Miller of The Hockey News reports.

Sharks' Calen Addison: Traded to San Jose
Rotowire
Addison was dealt to San Jose from Minnesota on Wednesday in exchange for Adam Raska and a 2026 fifth-round draft pick.
Addison had five assists (three on the power play) in 12 contests with Minnesota before the trade. He was averaging a modest 16:48 of ice time, though that did include an impressive 4:12 with the man advantage. San Jose might give him considerably more even-strength work in addition to a role on the top power-play unit, which would likely result in an increase in Addison's fantasy value.
Addison recorded a power-play assist in Minnesota's 5-3 loss to New Jersey on Thursday.
Addison has five helpers in nine contests this season, including three with the man advantage. The 23-year-old is serving on the third pairing, but he's also seeing time on the first power-play unit, which is a role that gives him some fantasy value.

Wild's Calen Addison: Snags power-play helper
Rotowire
Addison recorded a power-play assist against Montreal on Tuesday.
Addison has helpers in each of his last two contests and continues to see big minutes with the man advantage. While the defenseman is averaging just 17:27 of ice time, 5:03 of that is coming on the power play. As long as he maintains that role moving forward, he could set a new career high in points this season, topping his 29 points from last year.

Addison signed a one-year, $825,000 contract with Minnesota on Tuesday.
