2025 Projections
Signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Panthers in July of 2023. Waived by the Panthers in October of 2023. Claimed off waivers by the Penguins in October of 2023.
Becomes unrestricted free agent
Ludvig was not given a qualifying offer by Colorado and will be an unrestricted free agent Tuesday, Brennan Vogt of Hockey Mountain High reports.
ANALYSIS
Ludvig was claimed off waivers by the Avs back in October, appearing in just eight NHL games for the club. In those outings, the 24-year-old blueliner generated two assists, nine shots and 16 hits. It's possible the Penguins circle back on Ludvig after having lost him before the start of 2024-25, especially given the team's preference for younger players right now.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Expected to return after break
Ludvig, who is currently with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on a conditioning stint after missing a month of action with an upper-body injury, could return to the Penguins' lineup as early as Tuesday, according to Josh Yohe of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Yohe writes that the Penguins love Ludvig's physical play and that he'll return to the lineup once he is medically cleared. Ludvig saw his first action of the season Wednesday, picking up one shot on goal in a 4-1 loss to AHL Toronto. Pierre-Olivier Joseph could be the odd man out on the blue line when Ludvig returns to the NHL.
