Penguins Make Surprising Decision on Plasek
"The Penguins have acquired defenseman Jack Rathbone and forward Karel Plasek from the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for Mark Friedman and Ty Glover."
The Penguins have already decided to place him on waivers with the intention of terminating his contract.
Karel Plasek -- acquired yesterday by PIT from VAN -- is on unconditional waivers for the purpose of contract termination.
Plasek, 23, played most of his career in Czechia, his homeland. He played a few games with the Abbotsford Canucks but never made it to the NHL.
