Forwards Jordy Bellerive and Josh Currie and goaltender Emil Larmi were added to the Penguins’ taxi squad Friday morning. Who are they?

The Penguins shuffled their taxi squad Friday morning, sending forwards Frederick Gaudreau and Anthony Angello and goaltender Maxime Legace back to Wilkes-Barre to play with the Baby Penguins. Bellerive, Currie and Larmi have taken their places on the taxi squad.

For those unfamiliar, in simple terms, the taxi squad serves as a sort of COVID backup plan this season for NHL teams.
