Coal Street announced another signing today. Cody Wydo, who had a three game stint with the Penguins last Spring, signed an AHL deal Wednesday morning.
If you are thinking, “big whoop” think again. Wydo is essentially a point a game player at every level of hockey he has played at. He led the Wheeling Nailers in goals (30) and co-led the Penguins ECHL affiliate in points with 60.
Players like this don’t necessarily grow on trees. Smart of the Penguins to lock up Wydo for a season.
Elsewhere, one time Penguin and former captain Joey Mormina was named assistant coach to the Hartford Wolf Pack on Tuesday. We will be seeing Mormina’s towering frame in a suit and tie when the Wolf Pack come to visit the Penguins for the first time on October 21.
My puns are bad, but I don’t feel bad. Enjoy August!
