Parssinen was placed on waivers Tuesday, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
Parssinen has contributed two goals, one assist, 12 shots on net, nine blocked shots and 20 hits across 14 appearances this season. He has been a healthy scratch in six of the last eight games, and he will report to AHL Hartford if he clears waivers.

Rangers' Juuso Parssinen: Deposits goal Thursday
Rotowire
Parssinen scored a goal and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Parssinen has played in four straight games and has scored twice in that span. The 24-year-old is occupying a bottom-six spot but looks to have an edge over Jonny Brodzinski to stay in the lineup at this time. Parssinen has three points, four shots on net, six hits and a plus-3 rating across five appearances this season.

Rangers' Juuso Parssinen: Gets team's only goal in OT loss
Rotowire
Parssinen scored a goal Thursday in a 2-1 overtime loss to Toronto.
Parssinen deflected a shot from Braden Schneider in the slot at 4:51 of the third period. The Rangers had been shut out in each of their prior two games, and the goal was their first in 170:39. Parssinen has a point (one goal, one assist) in two games this season after putting up 16 points, including six goals, in 48 games between the Preds, Avs and Rangers last season.

Rangers' Juuso Parssinen: Notches helper in big win
Rotowire
Parssinen posted an assist, two hits and two PIM in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Penguins.
Parssinen was a healthy scratch for the first two games of the season, but he entered the lineup Saturday for Vincent Trocheck (upper body), who is week-to-week. The 24-year-old Parssinen will likely be limited to a bottom-six role while he's in the lineup. He had 16 points over 48 contests between the Rangers, Avalanche and Predators last year. With little chance of top-six usage or power-play time, fantasy managers can find more productive forwards than Parssinen on the waiver wire.

Rangers' Juuso Parssinen: Inks two-year extension
Rotowire
Parssinen signed a two-year, $2.5 million contract extension with the Rangers on Friday.
Parssinen tallied six goals and 10 assists across 48 NHL regular-season games with Colorado, Nashville and the Rangers. The 24-year-old ended the season with two goals and five points in his final three contests in 2024-25. Look for Parssinen to be a bottom-six forward for the Rangers in 2025-26.

Rangers' Juuso Parssinen: Two-point effort Monday
Rotowire
Parssinen picked up a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-3 win over the Panthers.
The 24-year-old has been getting more consistent ice time since the Rangers were eliminated from the playoffs, and Parssinen has responded by erupting for two goals and five points over the last three games despite a bottom-six assignment and zero shifts on the power play. New York will likely undergo a significant roster overhaul this offseason, but Parssinen is making his case to stick around.

Rangers' Juuso Parssinen: Big performance in rare outing
Rotowire
Parssinen scored a goal and added two assists in Thursday's 9-2 win over the Islanders.
This was a huge performance for a guy who has been struggling to stay in the Rangers' lineup. Parssinen may have bought himself a few games to prove his mettle, but the team is in a must-win situation. If he falters, he'll be on the bench. Let someone else snag Parssinen off the wire, as this was his first game since March 25.

Avalanche's Juuso Parssinen: Collects assist against former team
Rotowire
Parssinen logged an assist, three shots on goal and five hits in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Predators.
Parssinen was back in Nashville for the first time since the Predators dealt him to the Avalanche at the end of December. The 24-year-old is still working on his fit with his new team, though his production on offense is mostly unchanged. He has 11 points, 25 shots on net, 67 hits and a minus-6 rating across 36 appearances this season.

Avalanche's Juuso Parssinen: Logs helper Saturday
Rotowire
Parssinen notched an assist and three hits in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Bruins.
Parssinen ended a seven-game point drought with the helper on Artturi Lehkonen's goal. The 23-year-old Parssinen has three points over 13 outings with the Avalanche since he was traded from the Predators. His ice time has dropped with his new team -- the Avalanche's forward group is top heavy, but Parssinen hasn't done much with his chances on the second line. He's at eight points, 17 shots on net, 53 hits and a minus-7 rating through 28 appearances this season and likely can't be trusted for consistent offense in fantasy.

Avalanche's Juuso Parssinen: Scores lone goal in loss
Rotowire
Parssinen scored a goal on three shots, added two hits and logged two PIM in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Blackhawks.
Parssinen opened the scoring with an unassisted tally at 6:14 of the first period. He saw 14:35 of ice time Wednesday, though there were more minutes up for grabs with the Avalanche opting to dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen for this contest. Parssinen still looks to have some job security in a bottom-six role -- his two points over five games since he was traded from the Predators is one less than the collective point total of 10 forwards who have combined for 78 appearances in part-time roles as call-ups from AHL Colorado. Parssinen has a total of seven points, 16 shots on net, 34 hits and a minus-6 rating over 20 appearances this season.

Avalanche's Juuso Parssinen: First point with new club
Rotowire
Parssinen logged an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 3-1 win over the Panthers.
The helper was Parssinen's first point in four games since he was acquired by the Avalanche in a trade with the Predators. The good news is that Colorado is playing Parssinen, but it's come with a trade-off of minimal ice time in a fourth-line role compared to the middle-six minutes he often saw in Nashville's lineup. The 23-year-old has six points, 13 shots on net, 32 hits and a minus-7 rating over 19 contests this season, so he's unlikely to be much of a factor in fantasy.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Losing playing time
Rotowire
Parssinen was scratched for the eighth time in 11 games when he sat out Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.
Injuries opened the door for Parssinen to play in November, but he didn't do enough to stay in the lineup when he had the chance. He's at five points, 11 shots on net, 28 hits and a minus-8 rating through 15 appearances this season. For now, the Predators appear content with letting Zachary L'Heureux get a longer look in a middle-six role, so there's no telling when Parssinen might get another chance.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: On four-game point streak
Rotowire
Parssinen notched an assist and four hits in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Avalanche.
Parssinen has two goals and two assists during his active four-game point streak. He set up a Luke Evangelista tally in the first period of Monday's game. Parssinen has five points, six shots on net, 19 hits and a minus-2 rating through eight appearances. While it took him a while to gain a steady spot in the lineup, he appears to have it now as the third-line center.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Lights lamp Thursday
Rotowire
Parssinen scored a goal in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Panthers.
Parssinen has found the back of the net in back-to-back games, and he's recorded points in three of his six appearances this season. The 23-year-old has shown some interesting things, and if he's able to remain in the power-play unit and as a middle-six forward, he could continue finding ways to produce.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Pots first goal
Rotowire
Parssinen scored his first goal of the season in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Capitals.
The 23-year-old opened the scoring early in the first period by tipping home a Luke Evangelista point shot, but it was the only lead the Predators would hold on the night. Parssinen has only been in the lineup for five of the team's first 13 games, but he's taken a shift in four straight and actually led all Nashville forwards Wednesday in even-strength ice time. With the team looking for answers on offense, Parssinen could get a longer look in a top-six role.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Not reassigned to AHL
Rotowire
Contrary to a previous report, Parssinen was not reassigned to AHL Milwaukee on Monday.
Parssinen is in the running for a role in the bottom six after signing a one-year deal with Nashville In September. The 23-year-old registered 12 points and a minus-6 rating in 44 regular-season games in 2023-24.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Inks one-year deal
Rotowire
Parssinen agreed to terms on a one-year $775,000 contract with Nashville on Monday.
Parssinen's deal is a one-way contract, which doesn't guarantee he'll start the season in the NHL but certainly makes it harder to ship him down to the minors. After suiting up in 45 regular-season contests with the Predators last year, in which he generated eight goals and four assists, the 23-year-old winger looks poised to be a full-time contributor with Nashville. While Parssinen will likely slot into a bottom-six role at the onset, an injury or two could open the door for more minutes and an increased role at even strength and on the power play later in the campaign.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Dropped to AHL
Rotowire
Parssinen was loaned to AHL Milwaukee on Tuesday.
Parssinen has generated eight goals, 12 points, 54 shots on net and 55 hits over 44 outings with Nashville this season. He was a healthy scratch in Monday's 4-1 loss to Florida.
Parssinen produced a goal and an assist in Friday's 6-5 overtime win over the Hurricanes.
The 22-year-old winger opened the scoring early in the first period on a backhand that just trickled through Antti Raanta and across the goal line. Parssinen then helped set up Jeremy Lauzon's tally midway through the third to force OT. It's the first multi-point performance of the season for Parssinen. It's been a bumpy first full season in the NHL for the 22-year-old, but he does have two goals and four points in his past six games.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Scores goal in loss to Wild
Rotowire
Parssinen netted a goal in a 6-1 win against Minnesota on Thursday.
Parssinen's tally came early in the third period and merely narrowed Minnesota's lead to 5-1. He has four goals and five points in 21 contests this season. While that's not much offensive production, he is averaging 15:00 of ice time, including 1:52 with the man advantage, so the 22-year-old is in a position to improve. We saw evidence Parssinen could do better in 2022-23 when he recorded 25 points (six goals) in 45 contests with Nashville as a rookie.
