Pens place Jansen Harkins on waivers
The Jansen Harkins experiment in Pittsburgh might have reached its conclusion. The Penguins waived the forward today, after picking him up off the waiver wire 17 days ago.
Placed on NHL waivers: Jansen Harkins (PIT), Zack MacEwen (OTT) and Radim Simek (SJ).
— Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) October 19, 2023 Harkins, 26, was drafted and with the Jets up until a couple of weeks ago. He made a solid first impression in the preseason for Pittsburgh with his speed and forechecking but stumbled out of the gates in the regular season. Harkins did not record a point in the first four games of the season.
