Penguins Flip Pieniniemi for a Fresh Forward Swing
Pittsburgh has moved on from Emil Pieniniemi, and the return is an unsigned forward who at least gives the deal a little juice. The Penguins have been willing to keep poking at the roster edges, and this is another reminder that June is when teams start making bets on upside instead of comfort. A trade like this usually says as much about the organization’s timetable as it does about the player involved. The next step is whether the new piece turns into something more than a footnote.
