A quicky Penguins update.
Fiery defenseman Mark Friedman has cleared waivers (yes!) and will likely be assigned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.
However, in a rather curious development, the Pens have elected not to reclaim forward Radim Zohorna after he passed through waivers. Likely signaling an end to “Big Z’s” black-and-gold career.
In other moves, former first-round pick Samuel Poulin and goalie Filip Lindberg were sent to the Baby Pens yesterday. Both were training camp standouts. Both are waiver exempt.
As of this post, the Pens are presently at the 23-man roster limit but remain over the cap limit of $82.
