Craig Adams
Extra Forwards-
Richard Park who can play center or wing and tough guy Steve MacIntyre were kept on team. Jason Williams was assigned to WBS and has to clear waivers, while Sidney Crosby, Dustin Jeffrey, and Nick Petersen were put on injured reserve. It is important to note that Crosby was NOT put on LONG TERM IR, which would mean he had to miss at least 10 games, fuelling speculation that Crosby may be cleared for contact in the near future, and potentially playing in games by November!
Defensemen-
Brooks Orpik-now cleared for contact
Kris Letang
Paul Martin
Zbynek Michalek
Ben Lovejoy
Matt Niskanen
Deryk Engelland
Joe Morrow was sent to juniors, Brian Strait and Alexandre Picard were reassigned to WBS Penguins(Picard has to clear waivers and may not), while Robert Bortuzzo and Boris Valabik were put on injured reserve. With Dustin Jeffrey about a month away from being game ready, and Crosby probably in a similar situation, the forward position could change in the next month, with or without injury. The puck drops to start a three game western Canada road trip on Thursday night!
