With Todd Reirden's contract expiring, and a disappointing end to last season, the Wilkes/Barre Scranton Pens have opted to not renew his contract.
Instead, the Penguins have signed former defenseman Kjell Samuelsson to a 3 year deal. Dollar amounts were not disclosed, but it's believed he took a 'hometown discount.'
Samuelsson will have a lot of work to do with some drastic changes in both Pittsburgh and Wilkes-Barre this offseason. "I look forward to the challenge," said Samuelsson, "My job is to develop these young guys, but also create a competitive AsHL team, which I intend to do."
