Valtteri Puustinen news, rumors

  • • Penguins Separating the Wheat from the Chaff
    The Penguins were movin’ and shakin’ on Thursday, sending five players to their Wilkes-Barre/Scranton farm club and waiving six others. The five players assigned to the Baby Pens include forwards Mathieu De St. Phalle and Aidan McDonough, defensemen Scooter Brickey and Chase Pietila and goalie Taylor Gauthier. Pietila is the lone player among the assignees on an NHL contract. Hitting the waiver wi...2025
  • • Penguins Fall to Canadiens in Muse Debut
    A Penguins squad liberally seasoned with prospects and newcomers dropped a 2-1 shootout to the Canadiens at the Bell Centre last night. The Pens snagged the lead at 10:26 of the opening period on a power-play goal by Tristan Broz. Harrison Brunicke initiated the scoring sequence with a pass from center point to Broz in the right circle. Tristan played a quick game of pitch-and-catch with Valtteri ...2025

  • • Penguins Rally, Pitchfork Devils, 4-2
    This is getting to be a habit. A good one. For the third time in the past six games, the new-look Penguins beat a playoff-bound team. I say “new look” because the forward lines have been in an almost constant state of flux due to a near Biblical plague of injuries, especially the bottom six. Last night it was the Devils’ turn to feel our sting. We even spotted them an early two-goal lead, includin...2025
  • • Penguins Recall Three (or Puusti Rides Again)
    The 2024-25 NHL season, or what’s left of it, refuses to go quietly into the night for our Penguins. With a scant three games remaining on our regular-season docket and our forwards dropping like proverbial flies, the Pens dipped into their farm system and made three emergency recalls. Forwards Emil Bemström, Vasily Ponomarev and Valtteri Puustinen (pictured) are the summonees. Barring any u...2025
  • • Penguins This ‘n’ ‘At
    As our Penguins prepare to take on Rick Tocchet’s Canucks on Turkey Day Eve, I decided to fire a shot or two across the opinion bow. I’m not super disappointed that the Pens placed forward Valtteri Puustinen on waivers to make room for Blake Lizotte. Puusti was pretty much going to waste as the team’s 13th forward and was never going to be granted a real opportunity given our logjam of forwards. A...2024
  • • Penguins Finalize Roster
    The Penguins made several moves today to whittle their active roster down to the 23-man limit. In the process, becoming cap compliant. The black-and-gold returned defenseman Harrison Brunicke, arguably the most pleasant surprise of training camp and preseason this side of Rutger McGroarty (who made the team!), to the Kamloops Blazers of the Western Hockey League. There was some thought the Pens mi...2024

  • • Penguins Place Guentzel on IR
    The hits just keep on comin’ for our Penguins. The team announced today that it has placed star forward Jake Guentzel on injured reserve. Jake’s expected to miss three-to-four weeks with an undisclosed upper body. If Guentzel was placed on LTIR as seems to be the case (the Pens’ news release didn’t specify) he’ll be required to miss 10 games and 24 days. Needless to say, the news comes as a ...2024
  • • Penguins Update: Should Nylander Have Been Called Up Earlier?
    In the wake of Alex Nylander’s very impressive black-and-gold debut last night, it fairly screams the question. Should he have been called up earlier? And if so, could it have had an effect on the moves we made at the trade deadline? About six weeks ago, in the midst of a dry spell from our bottom six to rival rainfall totals in Death Valley, I posted an article suggesting that perhaps it was time...2023

  • • Penguins Offseason Rewind: Can I Get a Mulligan?
    I was engrossed in conversation with Other Rick at Wright’s Gym yesterday and the topic quickly veered toward our Penguins as it so often does. I began to expound on what I believe is the intent behind Kyle Dubas’ less-than-inspired moves of late when my colleague cut me off mid-sentence. “Dubas could’ve improved the team,” Other Rick insisted. “We could’ve gotten (Nikita) Zadorov.” His assertions...2024

  • • Penguins Update: Let’s Make a Deal?
    As the dust continues to settle on the 2023-24 season, it’s time to cast our eyes ahead to what’s likely to be a very interesting summer. Indeed, there shouldn’t be any shortage of business for POHO/GM Kyle Dubas to attend to. Topping the list, negotiations are set to begin on a contract extension for franchise pillar Sidney Crosby, who at age 36 enjoyed a remarkable 94-point season. There’s an en...2024

  • • Penguins Flip Script, Tame Wild, 4-3
    What a difference a couple of days makes in the life of your favorite hockey team. Only 48 hours after suffering arguably the worst and most humiliating defeat of the Sidney Crosby-era, the Penguins flipped the script and bested the Wild, 4-3, at PPG Paints Arena. Our third victory in four games for those who are keeping track of such things. The game itself seemed an all-too-appropriate represent...2023

    The Penguins placed three forwards on waivers today and sent six other players to their Wilkes-Barre/Scranton farm club. Andreas Johnsson, Joona Koppanen and Alex Nylander hit the waiver wire…we’ll know by tomorrow if they clear or not. The others sent down include forwards Avery Hayes, Rem Pitlick, Sam Poulin and Valtteri Puustinen, along with defensemen Xavier Ouellet and Ty Smith. The fact that...2023

  • • Penguins Update: The Jeff Carter Conundrum
    By all accounts, Penguins GM Kyle Dubas has had a productive and impactful summer. Since taking charge of the black-and-gold’s fortunes on June 1, he acquired veteran scorer Reilly Smith in a savvy trade with Vegas, executed the Erik Karlsson blockbuster while shedding some onerous contracts and signed a host of free agents to compete for bottom-six slots. All this while fleshing out the front off...2023

    I was preparing to scrape together a quickie summary of the Penguins uber-impressive 5-1 drubbing of the Red Wings last night in the Motor City when an overarching thought occurred to me. Almost against the odds and with little fanfare, has Pens GM/POHO Kyle Dubas assembled the makings of a hungry team? One that has something to prove? Based on the results of the last two preseason games? The answ...2024

  • • Penguins Re-Sign Puustinen
    In their second player move of the off-season, both involving young’uns, the Penguins re-signed pending free-agent forward Valtteri Puustinen to a two-year deal yesterday with an AAV of $775K. The Pens previously signed forward Sam Poulin to a two-year extension on April 29. Personally, I like re-upping Puustinen. The hustling 24-year-old winger provided much needed hop and energy to an aging (and...2024

  • • Penguins Update: Is Help on the Way (Part Two)?
    I’ll begin this post with a caveat. I freely admit that I’m the least informed (and thus the least qualified) of our PenguinPoop contributors to write about our prospects. Indeed, when it comes to the kids, Other Rick and Caleb Di’Natale are far more knowledgeable than I. However, for my own edification, I found myself poking into our prospects pool to see who might be of service in the not-...2024

    As the old saying goes, turnabout is fair play. Three days after a Penguins squad loaded with regulars got dumped by the Red Wings rookies, a team largely comprised of black-and-gold irregulars beat the Blue Jackets A-Team by a 3-1 count in Columbus last night. Lending credence to my colleague Other Rick’s insistence that our Pens might would be better served by icing a combination of kids ‘n’ vet...2024

    So now that the dust has settled on the free-agent season, or at least the early going, what’s the Penguins’ 23-man roster likely to look like? It’s pretty brutal, actually. No wonder Sportsnet Canada has us listed 29th out of 32 teams in their power rankings. A little more forgiving, JFresh predicts an 87-point, sixth in the Metro (non-playoff) season, with 10 teams stationed below us. My persona...2024

    Forward Rickard Rakell, who last played on November 19, is set to make his return to the lineup when the Penguins square off against the Maple Leafs tonight following a lengthy stint on IR. To make room, the team placed forward Vinnie Hinostroza on waivers. There’s even an extra silver lining to Rakell’s anticipated return. Coach Mike Sullivan plans to slot the silky Swede next to Sidney Crosby an...2023

  • • Penguins Training Camp Update: Big Z, Others, Making a Push…and a Statement
    Over the summer, new Penguins exec Kyle Dubas received lavish praise for the work he did to revamp our bottom six. However, in light of the way some internal candidates have performed thus far in training camp and preseason games, it’s safe to say at least some of these moves are being brought into question. To review, Dubas inked buzz-saw Noel Acciari for three years. Presumed third-line center L...2023

    The Penguins announced their training camp roster today. Fifty-eight players have been invited to camp, including five players on PTOs. Personally, I’m most interested in how the battle for bottom-six forward slots will shake out.
