The Penguins on Monday recalled Tristan Jarry from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and sent Joel Blomqvist down.
Jarry has a 6-5-1 record, .908 save percentage and 2.67 goals-against average in 12 appearances at the AHL level this season between his earlier conditioning stint and this latest re-assignment.
If Jarry is to be sent back to the AHL at any point, he would only need waivers if he plays 10 games or is on the active NHL roster for 30 cumulative days.
My take: Probably best for Blomqvist to get starting minutes in the AHL for awhile again, especially for a team gearing up for a playoff run. Can’t bury Jarry in the minors forever. If he shows improvement here now, it could make it easier to trade him.
