JOSEPH JETTISONED BACK TO THE 'BURGH
The Pittsburgh Penguins acquired defenseman Pierre-Olivier Joseph from the St. Louis Blues for future considerations.
What does it give the Pittsburgh Penguins
The Penguins know Joseph well, as he played for Pittsburgh as recently as last season. He is now back to help with the team's defensive depth in the wake of the injury to Marcus Pettersson.
What does it give the St. Louis Blues
After the Blues acquired Cam Fowler from Anaheim, there was a surplus on defense. So, St.. Louis sent Joseph back to Pittsburgh for what will likely amount to nothing in return.
Fantasy impact
There is no fantasy impact here, as Joseph might not play regularly once Pettersson returns to action.
