In two interesting moves, the Penguins have sent JS Dea back to the AHL and waived Garrett Wilson.
The Pittsburgh Penguins have re-assigned forward Jean-Sebastien Dea to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the American Hockey League, it was announced today by executive vice president and general manager Jim Rutherford.
Dea, 24, skated in three games for the Penguins, scoring against the Ottawa Senators on December 8. He was re-claimed by the Penguins off waivers from the New Jersey Devils on November 29.
It’s interesting due to the timing of it, the NHL’s annual roster freeze for the holidays starts tomorrow night.
