Overview
- The suspension for failure to report was recorded on the AHL transaction log and confirmed by a Penguins spokesperson.
- Pittsburgh acquired the 25-year-old from the Flyers on Dec. 31 in a one-for-one trade for forward Philip Tomasino, with Zamula assigned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.
- Tomasino reported to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms and made his AHL debut Saturday, while Zamula has not joined the Penguins’ affiliate.
- Reporting indicates Zamula recently switched to agent Dan Milstein and had explored a mutual contract termination prior to the trade.
- This marks the Penguins’ second such suspension this season after Emil Pieniniemi’s failure to report, with Pittsburgh’s blue line offering limited immediate NHL openings.
