And he's cleared...I doubt he is actually sent to WBS in the AHL. He'll be recalled soon, with hopes someone grabs him on re-entry waivers.
I can't imagine who would. He's due $1.75M this year...so whatever the prorated portion of that is now...
He was great early last season...then scored once in his last 29 games, including playoffs. Bringing him back with the idea he'd play on the top 2 lines was a mistake. He could be servicable on the 3rd line, but the Pens have no room there.
His wife is from Pittsburgh, and even while in Philly and Montreal (and that 2 month stint in Carolina) lived here in the offseason. He should retire, and Mario will give him a job in the front office.
