Penguins' Sebastian Aho: Hits waivers
Aho was placed on waivers Sunday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Aho had two goals and seven assists in 58 regular-season contests with the Islanders in 2023-24. He could be a call-up option for the Penguins during the 2024-25 campaign, assuming he doesn't get claimed by another team.

Penguins' Sebastian Aho: Signs two-year deal
Aho agreed to terms on a two-year, $1.55 million contract with Pittsburgh on Tuesday.
Aho managed just nine points in 58 regular-season games for the Islanders last season while averaging 16:23 of ice time. The 28-year-old Swede joins fellow free-agent acquisition Matt Grzelcyk on a revamped Penguins blue line, though a spot in the lineup is not guaranteed for Aho. He'll enter training camp in a positional battle with the likes of Jack St. Ivany and John Ludvig (wrist).

Islanders' Sebastian Aho: Not resting Wednesday
Aho will play Wednesday versus the Penguins, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Aho was initially slated to be rested for this game, but Anders Lee (personal) will now sit out instead. Aho will serve as a seventh defenseman, so it's likely his ice time will be limited anyway.

Islanders' Sebastian Aho: Sitting out against Pens
Aho will be rested for Wednesday's matchup with Pittsburgh, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Aho missed time as recently as April 9 against the Rangers due to an upper-body issue, so the decision to give him the night off shouldn't come as a surprise. Without the 28-year-old Swede in the lineup, the Isles will need to either bring a player up from the minors or hope that Noah Dobson (upper body) is ready to play.

Islanders' Sebastian Aho: Gets on scoresheet Thursday
Aho scored a goal on three shots, blocked two shots, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.
Aho has a goal and an assist over his last two games following a 10-game point drought that also saw him scratched six times.

Aho has two goals, eight points, 41 shots on net, 62 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 47 appearances.

Aho (upper body) was taken off the injured reserve list Wednesday, per the NHL media site, which indicates he'll play in the evening's game against Boston.

Islanders' Sebastian Aho: Game-time call Wednesday
Aho (upper body) is expected to be a game-time decision for Wednesday's contest versus Boston, coach Lane Lambert told Andrew Gross of Newsday.
Aho has four assists, nine hits and 26 blocks in 19 contests this campaign. He's missed the Islanders' last eight games because of the injury. Scott Mayfield suffered an upper-body injury and isn't expected to be an option Wednesday, so if Aho can't return, then Grant Hutton might play after being summoned from AHL Bridgeport on Wednesday.

Islanders' Sebastian Aho: Joins team on the ice
Aho (upper body) is skating with the team but won't be ready to face San Jose on Tuesday.
Aho will be sidelined for his fifth straight game Tuesday but appears to be nearing a return to action. The blueliner has yet to score a goal in 19 games this season while recording just 18 shots and averaging a paltry 14:11 of ice time. Given his limited minutes and lack of offensive upside, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting much out of the Swede even once cleared to play.

Aho, who sat out Saturday's 1-0 shootout loss to Philadelphia, will be unavailable for at least two more games following his placement on the IR list. He has registered four assists, 18 shots on goal and 26 blocked shots in 19 appearances this campaign. Mike Reilly or Grant Hutton, who played in Saturday's contest, are candidates to suit up for the Islanders during Aho's absence.

Aho posted a power-play assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canucks.
Aho snapped a three-game point drought with the helper. While he's generally seen limited even-strength time on the third pairing, he also has a spot on the second power-play unit. The 27-year-old defenseman is at three assists (two on the power play), 21 blocked shots, 17 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through 15 contests.

Islanders' Sebastian Aho: Gets on scoresheet with helper
Aho notched an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Blue Jackets.
The helper was Aho's first point in seven contests this season. The 27-year-old blueliner has been a fixture on the third pairing, but with Scott Mayfield (leg) out, the Islanders have leaned on their top-four defensemen more. Aho has added eight shots on goal, 10 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating, but his limited role is not conducive to helping fantasy managers.
