The Pittsburgh Penguins didn’t waive anyone today. Nothing too unusual about that in and of itself since they don’t waive players most days. But the inactivity means a little something special today, given the timing and calendar.
REMINDER: Any player on an NHL roster when Friday's 3pm ET trade deadline passes is ineligible to play in the AHL for the remainder of the 2024-25 season and 2025 Calder Cup Playoffs
Players who need waivers to be loaned to AHL would need to be waived Thursday. @InsideAHLHockey— Tony Androckitis* (@TonyAndrock) March 5, 2025This mostly has to do with Wilkes-Barre eligibility.
