Picked up off waivers Minnesota claimed Dermott off waivers from Edmonton on Friday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Impact Dermott had no points, two PIM, three shots, six hits and 10 blocks in 10 appearances with Edmonton in 2024-25 before being waived. The Wild lost Jacob Middleton to a hand injury Thursday and placed him on long-term injured reserve Friday, so Dermott will provide the Wild with some needed defensive depth. Dermott will likely find himself competing with Cameron Crotty for a role on the third pairing.

Placed on waivers Dermott was placed on waivers by the Oilers on Thursday.
Impact Dermott signed a contract with the Oilers just before the start of the regular season as he was on a PTO throughout training camp. The 27-year-old failed to pick up a point in 10 NHL games this season and has been a healthy scratch over the last seven games. Dermott will be sent to AHL Bakersfield, if he clears waivers.
DECEMBER 12 • ROTOWIRE
Available Saturday Dermott (illness) is available to draw back into the lineup Saturday versus the Rangers, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Impact Dermott was a late scratch Thursday due to the illness. He has no points, a minus-3 rating, six hits and 10 blocks in 10 appearances in 2024-25. While Dermott is projected to play Saturday, he might be a healthy scratch if Evan Bouchard (undisclosed), who is a game-time decision, ends up dressing.
NOVEMBER 23 • ROTOWIRE
Late scratch Thursday Dermott is a late scratch for Thursday's game against Minnesota due to an illness, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Impact Dermott has no points, six hits and 10 blocks in 10 appearances in 2024-25. Josh Brown, who was otherwise projected to be a healthy scratch, will serve on the third pairing due to Dermott's absence.
NOVEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Could see more playing time Dermott was in the lineup for a second straight game in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.
Impact A tight cap situation has forced the Oilers to deploy seven defensemen for the last two games, as Viktor Arvidsson (undisclosed) has been unavailable. Darnell Nurse (upper body) exited Saturday's game after an ugly hit, so Dermott may be set to take over a spot on the third pairing if Nurse misses time. Through his first eight appearances with the Oilers, Dermott has no points, three shots on goal, seven blocked shots, four hits, two PIM and a minus-2 rating, so he's unlikely to be a factor in fantasy.
NOVEMBER 17 • ROTOWIRE
Inks one-year contract Dermott signed a one-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Tuesday.
Impact Dermott attended training camp with the Oilers on a professional tryout before landing a two-way agreement with the team. He compiled two goals, five assists, 64 blocked shots and 52 hits across 50 contests with Arizona during the 2023-24 regular season. Dermott will serve as Edmonton's seventh defender going into the 2024-25 campaign.

Scores in loss Dermott scored a goal on four shots and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 6-2 preseason loss to the Kraken.
Impact The Oilers brought a mostly veteran roster to Seattle, with Dermott getting another chance on his tryout. It's unclear if he's done enough to earn a full contract, but that decision is unlikely to be made until Evander Kane (hip/abdomen) is placed on long-term injured reserve. Dermott would likely fill a rotational role on the third pairing in competition with Josh Brown and/or Troy Stecher for playing time.

OCTOBER 1 • EDMONTONJOURNAL.COM
Inks PTO with Edmonton Dermott (upper body) signed a professional tryout agreement with the Oilers on Tuesday, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Dermott struggled with seven points in 50 games for Arizona last season. The 27-year-old will head to the Oilers with a chance to win a bottom-pairing job on the blue line, though he begins the preseason behind his fellow former Coyotes in Troy Stecher and Josh Brown.
SEPTEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE
Season likely over Dermott (upper body) is not expected to return this season, Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports reports Tuesday.
Impact It's been a tough season for Dermott, who has been limited to just 50 games this year in which he generated two goals and five helpers while averaging 17:17 of ice time. The 27-year-old blueliner's underwhelming season could impact his ability to cash in this offseason, as he will become an unrestricted free agent July 1.
APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers injury Sunday Dermott (upper body) left Sunday's 5-2 win over San Jose in the second period and didn't return, according to Alan Robinson of NHL.com.
Impact There was no update on Dermott's status following the contest, so it's unclear if he will be available for Tuesday's contest against Seattle. If he can't play, the Coyotes will need to bring up a defender from AHL Tucson.
APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE
Puts up assist Dermott logged an assist and blocked three shots in Friday's 7-4 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Dermott ended his eight-game point drought by helping out on Michael Carcone's go-ahead goal with 5:13 left in the third period. The 27-year-old Dermott is up to seven points through 49 outings in a bottom-four role this season. He's added 37 shots on net, 24 PIM, a minus-13 rating, 52 hits and 64 blocked shots. Dermott has limited offensive upside, so his fantasy value is low.

Hands out helper Dermott notched an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact The helper was Dermott's first point since Feb. 12, though he played just four games out of 15 in that span. The 27-year-old has six points, 32 shots on net, 52 blocked shots, 41 hits and a minus-12 rating through 40 appearances. The Coyotes are carrying only six defensemen currently -- Dermott's place in the lineup is safe as long as that continues, though Josh Brown is likely more at risk of a healthy scratch.
MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE
Good to go Dermott (illness) will play Tuesday against the Wild.
Impact Dermott will play on the third pairing following a two-game absence. He has picked up two goals, three assists, 50 blocked shots and 40 hits over 38 outings this season. Victor Soderstrom was assigned to AHL Tucson on Tuesday to make room for Dermott's return to the lineup.
MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE
Not expected to play Dermott (illness) won't be in the lineup Sunday against Chicago, according to Patrick Brown of the Coyotes' official site.
Impact Dermott is expected to miss his second straight contest. He has two goals, three assists, 50 blocked shots and 40 hits over 38 outings this season. Victor Soderstrom is projected to remain in the lineup versus the Blackhawks due to Dermott's absence.
MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE
Out Friday Dermott (illness) will not suit up Friday against Detroit.
Impact Dermott is considered day-to-day with an illness, so he could return as early as Sunday in Chicago. The 27-year-old hasn't scored a point since Feb. 12.
MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with minor injury Dermott (undisclosed) has a minor injury, Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports reports.
Impact There's not much information available on what Dermott is dealing with but it sounds like he could be a game-time call for Friday's game against Detroit. He has five points in 38 games this season.
MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE
Produces helper Monday Dermott logged an assist and two PIM in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Flyers.
Impact Dermott has a goal and an assist over his last two games. The 27-year-old defenseman has stayed in a bottom-four role with the Coyotes enjoying nearly full health on the blue line. He's earned five points, 30 shots on net, 47 blocked shots, 31 hits and a minus-11 rating through 35 outings. Dermott's role is a defensive one, so he's not much of an option for fantasy managers.
FEBRUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE
Deposits goal Dermott scored a goal on three shots, logged two hits, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Predators.
Impact Dermott's tally tied the game at 1-1 in the first period. The 27-year-old has scored both of his goals this season over his last seven outings. He's up to four points, 30 shots on net, 31 hits, 46 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating through 34 appearances. Dermott's usage is likely to remain mostly defensive, so he doesn't make for a strong fantasy option.
FEBRUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE
Ready to return Thursday Dermott (lower body) is expected to play Thursday versus Vegas.
Impact Dermott has a goal, three points, 14 PIM, 28 hits and 42 blocks in 32 contests this season. He's projected to serve on the second pairing alongside Matt Dumba, who is returning from an upper-body injury. Josh Brown is set to be a healthy scratch.
FEBRUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE
Not playing Saturday Dermott (lower body) won't be in the lineup Saturday against Carolina.
Impact Dermott has registered three points, 27 shots on goal, 42 blocked shots and 27 hits in 32 games this season. Victor Soderstrom will replace Dermott in Saturday's lineup.
