This is because the Washington Capitals have claimed defenseman Jack St. Ivany off of waivers from the Winnipeg Jets. With this news, the former Penguins defenseman is now a member of one of Pittsburgh's biggest division rivals.

St. Ivany played in four games this season with the Jets before being claimed off waivers by the Capitals. During them, he recorded zero points, five blocks, six hits, and a minus-1 rating.

St. Ivany will provide the Capitals with more defensive depth with this waiver claim. The 27-year-old will now be looking to impress with the Capitals from here.

St. Ivany spent each of his first three NHL seasons with the Penguins from 2023-24 to 2025-26. In 53 games with the Penguins over that span, he posted nine assists, 63 blocks, 116 hits, and a plus-1 rating. His best season with Pittsburgh was this past campaign, though, he recorded a career-high seven assists in 20 games.

The Penguins traded St. Ivany to the Jets this off-season in exchange for forward David Gustafsson. Now, with this news, his time in Winnipeg is already over.
