[quote=Tojo.]Probably not for cap. Zohorna also waived though still on camp roster. Might be trying to sneak him through now just in case, but it's not good for him he's sent down through waivers over his competition.

Down to 28 on NHL camp: Gruden and Fedun are both hurt and likely get cut later. Poulin is excused and spent a day in WBS camp before Blueger injury so he is also a likely cut but I'll keep him for now. So 24 players for 20 spots with both goalies set

Forwards 15: Poulin was in WBS group for a day and is currently excused so they are probably waiting to send him down once he returns. Leaves Poehling, Archibald, and Zohorna in spots 12-14 with likely one more being cut and not looking good for Z.

Defensemen 9: Smith is looking good for 6th spot. Friedman I think has little chance. I don't think the Pens can keep 8, especially with 2 forwards banged up and not practicing. So if Smith makes it, either POJ or Ruhwedel will be cut and have to clear waivers/quote]

...and that's f'n crazy, for a number of reasons, if they hit waivers. I think they would both be snagged by another team.

It's going to be really stupid if we lose a player of value because we signed a bunch of plugs this offseason.

Technically the players we are going to lose are plugs too. It's really just a choice between plugs at this point.
