INJURIES

NHL rights remain with club Ponomarev was given a qualifying offer from Pittsburgh on Monday.
Impact An initial report indicated that Ponomarev was not going to be retained by the Penguins but it seems like that plan changed. The 23-year-old center is signed with KHL club Avangard Omsk for the next three seasons, so even if he does return to the NHL, it won't be any time soon.

Won't receive qualifying offer Ponomarev will not be given a qualifying offer from the Penguins, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports Monday.
Impact Ponomarev already agreed to terms on a three-year contract with Avangard Omsk (KHL), so he wasn't going to be playing for the franchise any time soon. It seems the Pens won't bother trying to retain his NHL rights that long, so if Ponomarev decides to return in the future, he will be able to sign with any NHL club.

NOVEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Headed for minors Ponomarev (upper body) was taken off the injured non-roster list and reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.
Impact Ponomarev was a long shot to make Pittsburgh's Opening Night roster but a preseason injury all but guaranteed he would start the year in the minors. Still, the 22-year-old Russian has shown some offensive upside in the AHL and should be on the shortlist of potential call-ups throughout 2024-25.
OCTOBER 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Starting season on shelf Ponomarev (upper body) was placed on season-opening injured reserve Monday.
Impact Ponomarev will almsot certainly be reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton once he is cleared to return to action. The 22-year-old Russian played in two NHL games last year for the Hurricanes, tallying one goal, one assist and one shots while averaging 9:41 of ice time. While he could earn a call-up from time to time, Ponomarev should see the bulk of his time in the minors this year.
OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Slated to miss Friday's game Ponomarev (upper body) is expected to miss Friday's preseason game against Columbus, the team announced Thursday.
Impact Friday's clash is Pittsburgh's final scheduled exhibition contest before the start of the regular season. When Ponomarev is healthy, he will probably be sent to the minors. He had nine goals and 30 points across 45 regular-season contests between AHL Tucson, Chicago and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in 2023-24.
OCTOBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Unlikely to suit up Thursday Ponomarev (upper body) isn't expected to play Thursday against Columbus.
Impact Ponomarev is considered day-to-day due to an upper-body injury, and he'll be unable to suit up in the penultimate game of the regular season. He's had a strong preseason, but his injury could hinder his case for a spot on the Opening Night roster. His final chance to play during the preseason will be in a rematch against the Blue Jackets on Friday.
OCTOBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
