The Penguins re-assigned Ville Koivunen and Rutger McGroarty to Wilkes-Barre.
Both were up on emergency recalls and were papered down and back up on days they weren't needed in games to keep that emergency recall status, but this re-assignment is legitimate and not just on paper. The Penguins are mostly healthy at forward, and have Avery Hayes as an extra, so there wasn't a need for Koivunen and McGroarty to stay up.
