The Pittsburgh Penguins have made their final decisions on qualifying offers this summer. Any impending restricted free agent not given a QO by today would become unrestricted tomorrow. Defenseman P.O. Joseph was the biggest name that applied for Pittsburgh, and he was not extended offer by the Pens, per Elliotte Friedman. Still unknown is the status of forward Emil Bemstrom, who would also needed to be qualified by Pittsburgh today by 5pm.
Qualifying in this instance would have meant the next step in the process for the players would be to file for arbitration. Arbitration cases are held later in the summer, with most being rendered unnecessary if teams and players agree to a contract prior to that point (which they can still do at any time).
