Good news for a Max Talbot return: From the Penguins:
The Pittsburgh Penguins have re-assigned forward Mark Letestu to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the American Hockey League, it was announced by Executive Vice President and General Manager Ray Shero.
Letestu, 24, made his NHL debut in the Penguins’ 6-5 overtime victory over the Boston Bruins Nov. 14, and has appeared in two games for Pittsburgh.
At the time of his recall, Letestu was one of Wilkes-Barre/Scranton’s top scoring threats with eight points (3G-5A) in eight games. The Elk Point, Alberta native has played the last two-plus seasons in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, finishing third on the team in scoring last season with 61 points on 24 goals and 37 assists in 73 contests.

Looks like it….
Slowly but surely… Gonchar and Kennedy are probably about a week out…. Orpik, Kunitz and Letang probably the week after that…. GoGo after that…
Just guesses, of course…

Or it could be to save a couple days worth of salary…But Max has been practicing with the team for a while now, so he must be ready to go…
