Taking part in camp skate
Riikola (undisclosed) skated with the non-scrimmage group at Monday's camp session, Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com reports.
Impact
Riikola was part of the nine-player quarantine group that returned to the ice Monday. Even now that he's back with the team, the blueliner should be considered a long shot to get onto the ice versus the Habs and likely would be considered eighth on the team depth chart, at best.

Added to camp roster
Joseph has been included in the Penguins' training camp roster.
Impact
Acquired by the club as part of the Phil Kessel deal, Joseph registered 17 points in 52 games for AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season. A strong camp from the 21-year-old defenseman could convince the club to give him a spot on the 23-man roster ahead of the 2020-21 campaign and to part ways with Juuso Riikola. In addition to Joseph, the club brought in forwards Philip Varone, Adam Johnson, Sam Miletic and Samuel Poulin, defenseman Kevin Czuczman and netminders Casey DeSmith and Alex D'Orio.
