Foudy was placed on waivers Saturday for the purpose of sending him to AHL Hamilton.

Foudy notched 26 goals and 47 points in 60 games for AHL Bridgeport during the 2025-26 regular season. If he clears waivers, he will likely spend most, if not all, of the 2026-27 campaign in the minors.

Hofer will guard the road goal in Saturday's exhibition matchup against Chicago, per Lou Korac of The Hockey News.

Hofer made 17 saves on 18 shots in Monday's 2-1 preseason loss to Dallas. He will get one last start before the 2026-27 campaign begins. Hofer posted a 24-13-5 record with six shutouts, a 2.61 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 46 appearances during the 2025-26 regular season.

Gibson will guard the home crease in Saturday's preseason contest against the Blue Jackets, per Ansar Khan of MLive.com.

Gibson is expected to play the entirety of Detroit's preseason finale between the pipes. The 33-year-old netminder had a solid first preseason outing, where he allowed just two goals on the 24 shot attempts he saw in a 7-4 win over the Penguins. The veteran backstop is coming off his best year in recent memory and is set to anchor the Red Wings' defense as the clear No. 1 option in net ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.

Greenway (lower body) is expected to play in Tuesday's regular-season opener against Vegas, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Greenway returned to the ice for Saturday's practice after being day-to-day due to an injury. He produced one goal, five assists, 32 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and 56 hits in 40 appearances with Buffalo during the 2025-26 regular season. As a member of the Blackhawks in 2026-27, he will likely occupy a bottom-six role.

Knight will start Saturday's preseason finale against the Blues, according to Mark Lazerus of The Athletic.

Knight is expected to play the full game. He posted a 19-25-11 record with three shutouts, a 2.82 GAA and a .902 save percentage in 55 appearances during the 2025-26 regular season. Knight should be a workhorse between the pipes for the Blackhawks again in the 2026-27 campaign.

Jones was put on waivers Saturday for the purpose of being assigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.

Jones chipped in one assist, five shots on net, 15 blocked shots and 10 hits in seven regular-season appearances for Pittsburgh in 2025-26. If he goes unclaimed, he could see most of his playing time in the minors this campaign.

Kolosov will protect the home net in Saturday's preseason finale against Washington, Jackie Spiegel of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Kolosov is poised to play the entire game. He went 0-2-0 while allowing eight goals on 47 shots in four appearances for Philadelphia during the 2025-26 regular season. If Dan Vladar (upper body) isn't ready for the start of the 2026-27 campaign, Kolosov could enter the year as Joseph Woll's backup.

Del Bel Belluz (shoulder) is expected to play in Saturday's preseason game against Detroit.

Del Bel Belluz is competing for a fourth-line role with the Blue Jackets at training camp, and he will get another chance to make an impression in Saturday's preseason finale. He picked up one assist, 11 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and three hits in 14 appearances for Columbus during the 2025-26 regular season.

Holl was placed on waivers Saturday for the purpose of being loaned to AHL Hershey.

Holl contributed one goal, two points, seven shots on net, five blocked shots and five hits in nine appearances for St. Louis during the 2025-26 regular season. If he clears waivers and heads to the minors, Washington could call him up at some point in the 2026-27 campaign.

Schmid will patrol the home crease in Saturday's preseason matchup against Tampa Bay, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Schmid posted a 16-10-6 record with a 2.59 GAA and an .893 save percentage in 34 regular-season appearances for Vegas in 2025-26. As a member of Florida, he could push Jacob Markstrom for starts in the 2026-27 campaign, but Schmid will likely enter the year as Markstrom's backup.
