Iorio logged an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio played for the second game in a row and the fourth time in 11 contests since the end of his AHL conditioning loan in November. The 23-year-old defenseman is far from secure in the Sharks' lineup, which has seen a number of players rotate in and out on the blue line at times. Iorio has a helper, four shots on net, eight hits, 14 blocks, six PIM and a minus-3 rating over 10 appearances this season.

Iorio was recalled from his conditioning stint with AHL San Jose on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio had seven assists, five shots on goal and a plus-7 rating in six minor-league outings during his conditioning assignment. He will be an option for Wednesday's game against Colorado, but it's unclear if he will be in the lineup.

Iorio logged two assists in AHL San Jose's 4-3 overtime win over Abbotsford on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio impressed during his 14-day conditioning loan, racking up seven helpers over six games in total, as well as a plus-7 rating and five shots on net. The Sharks will have to add him back to their NHL roster Sunday or expose him to waivers, which is how they got him from the Capitals in the first place. Assuming he stays with the Sharks, he should be in contention for bottom-four minutes moving forward, likely at the expense of John Klingberg or Vincent Desharnais. There could be a lot of shuffling of blueliners in and out of the lineup if the Sharks continue to carry nine defensemen.

Iorio was assigned to AHL San Jose on Sunday for a conditioning loan.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio has been a healthy scratch for the last seven games. Since being claimed off waivers from Washington on Oct. 16, he hasn't earned a point in six appearances with the Sharks, but he has registered three shots on net, six blocked shots and three hits.

Iorio was claimed off waivers by the Sharks on Thursday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio was waived by Washington on Wednesday as they tried to sneak him through to allow him to get some playing time in the minors. Iorio was a healthy scratch for all four Capitals games this season. The Sharks are hurting on the blue line, as Timothy Liljegren (upper body) was placed on injured reserve earlier Thursday, while John Klingberg is day-to-day with a lower-body injury.

Iorio was put on waivers by Washington on Wednesday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio served as a healthy scratch for Washington's first four games of the 2025-26 campaign, so it's not surprising to see him on waivers. He had five goals and 20 points in 67 regular-season outings with AHL Hershey in 2024-25.

Iorio was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio didn't play for Washington during his NHL stint. He has a goal and three points across nine outings with Hershey in 2024-25. Matt Roy was activated off injured reserve in a corresponding move.

Iorio was recalled from AHL Hershey on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The Capitals placed Jakob Chychrun (upper body) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Iorio played six regular-season games for the Capitals in 2023-24, but the 20-year-old defender didn't earn a point. He has a goal and two assists in nine AHL outings this campaign. It's unclear if Iorio will play in Saturday's matchup versus Columbus, but it wouldn't be surprising if he sat in the press box as a healthy scratch.

Iorio (upper body) was loaned to AHL Hershey on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio sat out three straight contests to conclude Washington's first-round series loss to the Rangers. Assuming he's healthy, which his demotion suggests, he should get a chance to play for the Bears in the AHL playoffs. The 21-year-old defender had four goals and 14 points in 60 minor-league appearances during the 2023-24 regular season.

Iorio (upper body) won't play Sunday in Game 4 against the Rangers, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Iorio stayed out late with Washington's expected scratches after participating in the morning skate in a non-contact capacity. He will miss his third straight outing due to an injury he sustained in the team's playoff opener last Sunday. However, the Capitals will get some reinforcements on the blue line because Rasmus Sandin (upper body) and Nick Jensen (upper body) are set to return to the lineup.
