The Pittsburgh Penguins have re-assigned forward Anthony Angello to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the American Hockey League, it was announced today by general manager Ron Hextall.

Forward Drew O'Connor has been added to the NHL's COVID-19 Protocol List.
Forward Brian Boyle's non-roster (personal reasons) status has been removed.
Angello, 25, has spent the beginning of the 2021-22 season with the WBS Penguins, playing in four games and recording one shorthanded, game-winning goal. The 6-foot-5, 210-pound forward split the 2020-21 season between Pittsburgh, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Pittsburgh's taxi squad, suiting up for 19 games with Pittsburgh and registering four points (2G-2A) and a plus-4. He also appeared in 12 games for WBS, notching six goals, four assists and 10 points.
In 27 career NHL games, Angello has recorded three goals, two assists and five points.
The Penguins return to action tomorrow, January 5 against the St. Louis Blues at PPG Paints Arena as they look to extend their winning streak to nine games. Puck drop is set for 7:30 PM ET.
