On Monday, the team announced it had agreed to terms with Daniel Laatsch, a seventh-round (215th overall) pick in the 2021 Draft, on a two-year deal worth $1.72 million. His cap hit will be $860k for the next two seasons.

The Pittsburgh Penguins announced Thursday that the club has signed right winger Avery Hayes to a two-year, entry-level contract to begin in the 2025-26 season.

The Penguins have started the process of filling out the organization for next season by signing some draft picks as we get to the point in the year where college hockey seasons begin to end for some of them out there.

At this point, it is pretty safe to say that the Pittsburgh Penguins will miss the playoffs for the third season in a row. President of hockey operations and general manager Kyle Dubas has no doubt already started looking to the offseason.
