Penguins activate defenseman Owen Pickering from injured reserve
The Pittsburgh Penguins activated rookie defenseman Owen Pickering from injured reserve Friday evening.
A left-handed shot, Pickering has been sidelined the past four games as a result of a concussion he suffered during a 3-0 road loss to the New Jersey Devils on Dec. 21.
The Penguins’ first-round pick (No. 21 overall) in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft, Pickering has appeared in 14 games this season and has scored two points (one goal, one assist) while averaging 15:47 of ice time per contest.
