Overview
- Teams have until 2:00 p.m. ET today to claim Tomasino, after which he can be assigned by Pittsburgh to AHL Wilkes‑Barre/Scranton if he clears.
- Tomasino has one assist in nine games this season with an average of 12:10 ice time and a sharply reduced power‑play role.
- The 2019 first‑round pick was acquired from Nashville last season for a 2027 fourth‑rounder and re‑signed on a one‑year deal for 2025–26.
- Pittsburgh’s decision comes as the club juggles multiple forward injuries and recent call‑ups, leaving questions about short‑term depth.
- Philadelphia also placed defenseman Maxence Guenette on waivers after acquiring and signing him, aiming to assign him to AHL Lehigh Valley if unclaimed.
