Penguins Waive Egor Zamula for Contract Termination After AHL Refusal

The Pittsburgh Penguins placed defenseman Egor Zamula on waivers for contract termination, just six days after acquiring him from the Flyers. Zamula was suspended for failing to report to their AHL affiliate, reportedly having no interest in playing at that level. Once he clears, the Penguins will save $1.7 million and gain $3.45 million in cap space. The 6-foot-3 blueliner has 8 goals and 41 points in 168 career NHL games.
