The NHL waiver wire is open for business and the Penguins wasted little time in taking advantage, placing five players on waivers today.
Talk about separating the wheat from the chaff!
Included in those ranks? A recent Kyle Dubas add and one of Ron Hextall’s high-profile acquisitions (and apparent biggest blunders).
The Dubas pickup? Forward Rem Pitlick, acquired a mere seven weeks ago in the Erik Karlsson blockbuster.
The Hextall addition? Defenseman Ty Smith, acquired straight-up in the summer of 2022 for John Marino.
