Ty Smith, Pitlick Clear Waivers, Assigned to Wilkes-Barre

The Pittsburgh Penguins did not lose any of the five players they placed on waivers Thursday.

Members of that group, headlined by defenseman Ty Smith and winger Rem Pitlick, subsequently were sent to the Penguins’ American Hockey League affiliate in Wilkes-Barre.

Forward Jonathan Gruden and defensemen Taylor Fedun and Xavier Ouellet are the other players who were pared from the training-camp roster Thursday.
