The Penguins recalled winger Dominik Simon from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Friday afternoon, the team announced.
Simon has 11 points in 28 NHL games this season. He had been with the team since being called up in early January, but was sent down to the AHL Monday as part of the Penguins' trade deadline roster moves. He did not actually appear in a game for Wilkes-Barre during this stint in the AHL.
Simon gives the Penguins another left wing option in their lineup. He could play on Sidney Crosby's top line, or get a spot in the bottom six.
