1. What happened?

2. Who and why?

3. Did a forward get hurt in practice yesterday?

4. He had an okay pre season with the Penguins. Has quite a bit of NHL experience. Still don’t really understand this move though. *popcorn

5. I have never heard that name before in my life.

6. Maybe it’s an extra forward as koivunen was sent down just in the event of an injury

7. Who is injured?

8. At least we’ll have our answer in a few hours.

9. If it was one of the top 9 guys hurt you would have to think they’d choose someone more interesting like Broz or give Koivunen another shot. This guy doesn’t really make sense anywhere other than a 4th line so it’s probably one of them.

10. Good to see a fresh face called up. Hope he’s ready

11. My first reaction was “what in the world?”, but I guess this is as good a game as any to try out a WBS guy. As long as they don’t even THINK about touching the fourth line, I’d be eager to see what he can do (if not today, then soon).

12. Penguins only had two scratches last game, meaning they have an open roster spot. Maybe calling him up to see him in practice?

    Edit: My hopefulness was wrong. Rust day-to-day

13. Is this an AI generated picture and name? lol

14. Uhhhh, who?

15. Where the hell did he come from

16. Whomst?

17. They called him up because Rust is day to day but there having Kevin Hayes play with him as a backup if anyone else goes down.
