Penguins loan prospect Olund to Swedish team

CRANBERRY, Pa. -- The Penguins have loaned forward prospect Linus Olund to Brynas of the Swedish Hockey League for the 2019-20 season, Brynas announced on Friday.

Olund, 22, was drafted out of Brynas by the Penguins in the fifth-round in the 2017 draft. He made the move to North America last season and recorded six goals and nine assists in 61 games with Wilkes-Barre. He primarily played a fourth-line role and was a healthy scratch at times.

Olund is still under contract with the Penguins for another two seasons, he has not been released from his contract.
