Samuel Poulin News: Demoted to minors

Poulin was demoted to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Monday.

Poulin's demotion could be an indication that either Cody Glass (concussion) or Blake Lizotte (concussion) will be ready to return against Vancouver on Wednesday -- though with extra days off, there is plenty of time for Poulin to be recalled ahead of that game. Since being called up from the minors, the 23-year-old Poulin has appeared in six games for the Penguins, in which he tallied one assist, eight hits and two shots on goal while averaging 10:06 of ice time.
