Rotowire
Zohorna played in a career-high 33 games for the Penguins this season, generating four goals and three assists.

Rotowire
Zohorna landed on the waiver wire Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Assuming he clears, the 27-year-old winger figures to be reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. With the extra roster spot, Pittsburgh will likely bring up a defenseman after Chad Ruhwedel (undisclosed) was injured Monday and put Colin White in Zohorna's spot on the third line.
