Bowers was reassigned to AHL San Jose on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Bowers had three goals and 17 points in 65 outings with AHL Utica in 2024-25. The 26-year-old has appeared in 13 career regular-season games in the NHL, and Bowers might get an opportunity with the big club at some point during the 2025-26 campaign.

Bowers was recalled from AHL San Jose on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

With the Sharks ending the preseason with a back-to-back against Vegas and Utah on Friday and Saturday, respectively, the team decided to bolster its roster by bringing up three players, including Bowers. For his part, the 26-year-old center has appeared in just 13 regular-season NHL games for the Avs and Devils, recording zero points, 10 shots and 12 hits. Once the preseason action wraps up, look for Bowers to head back down to the minors.

Bowers was placed on waivers by the Sharks on Tuesday, according to James Mirtle of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Bowers will report to AHL San Jose if he doesn't find a new team via the waiver wire. The 2017 first-round pick (No. 28 overall) appeared in just four regular-season games with New Jersey last year, though he suited up for 65 outings with AHL Utica, notching three goals and 17 points.

Bowers was acquired by San Jose from New Jersey on Wednesday in exchange for Thomas Bordeleau.

EDGE Analysis

Bowers had three goals and 17 points in 65 regular-season appearances with AHL Utica in 2024-25. Although the 25-year-old was selected with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2017 NHL Draft, Bowers has no points in 13 career NHL games. He's expected to start this coming season in the minors.

Bowers was reassigned to AHL Utica on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Bowers was called up by the Devils on Nov. 18, and he made four appearances during his time with the NHL club. The 25-year-old logged nine hits and a minus-1 rating while averaging 8:15 of ice time, but he'll head back to the minors after Mike Hardman and Nathan Legare were recalled by New Jersey on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Bowers made just eight appearances for the Devils last year and averaged 9:27 of ice time, so it seems unlikely that he'll have a significant role during his current stint with the NHL club. However, he should provide additional depth for New Jersey while Nathan Bastian (jaw) and Curtis Lazar (knee) are sidelined.

EDGE Analysis

Bowers saw action in just eight NHL games this season in which he generated zero points, seven shots and three hits while averaging 9:27 of ice time. Even in the minors, the 24-year-old center didn't offer much in the way of offensive output with a mere 14 points in 43 games for AHL Utica. Bowers should probably be expected to spend the bulk of the next two years in the minors with the occasional call-up.
