With a lineup of mostly young prospects mixed with a few veterans, the Penguins were shut out by the Blue Jackets, 4-0 last night at Columbus. The preseason concludes with a visit to Buffalo tomorrow.
On the injury front, forward Ben Kindel is now listed as “week-to-week” with an undisclosed injury. Forward Blake Lizotte is also week-to-week while forward Justin Brazeau is “day-to-day” and has resumed practicing.
Ten young players were reassigned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton yesterday, including goaltender Taylor Gauthier, who cleared waivers. Defenseman Phil Kemp, who was the Wilkes captain last season, was placed on waivers. If he clears by 2 PM today, he can be assigned back to Wilkes.
Forward Melvin Fernstrom and goaltender Gabriel D’Aigle were designated as injured non-roster.
