Penguins Call Up Poulin, Waive Tomasino
Out of the blue, the Penguins had a fairly eventful day, personnel-wise, ahead of their return to action on Friday night against the Wild.
Rookie forward Ville Koivunen has been placed IR. He’ll be out week-to-week with a lower-body injury.
With a pair of assists and no goals in 11 games, the youngster experienced his struggles at the big-league level this season. This on the heels of an impressive cameo with the Pens last spring, not to mention a piping hot stretch with the Baby Pens before his latest recall.
In his stead, the club summoned forward Sam Poulin from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. The rugged 213-pounder is currently leading the Baby Pens in scoring with 15 points, including seven goals.
