Fedun was placed on waivers Thursday, according to CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
The 35-year-old blueliner played in four games with the Penguins last season, his first NHL action in three years. He will earn $325,000 at the AHL level and $775,000 if he plays in the NHL this year.

Fedun was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
With Jeff Petry (upper body) back in the lineup, Fedun was sent down from his emergency recall rather than transferred to the roster on a standard recall. If the Penguins' blue line sustains another injury before the end of the season, Fedun would likely be in the mix for a call-up again.

Fedun was called up by the Penguins under emergency conditions Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Fedun's promotion comes as Marcus Pettersson (lower body) was placed on long-term injured reserve in a corresponding move. With several blueliners banged up, Fedun looks set to play in an NHL game for the first time since the 2019-20 campaign when he was with the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Fedun was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Fedun's promotion is likely an indication that Kris Letang (personal) will not be available for Friday's matchup with Winnipeg though that hasn't been officially confirmed. Even with his promotion, Fedun shouldn't be expected to get into the lineup and figures to serve as an emergency depth option.

Fedun (undisclosed) was designated for waivers by the Penguins on Tuesday, per CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
Fedun was almost certainly going to start the year in the minors for Pittsburgh after signing a two-way deal with the club back in May. An undisclosed injury during training camp certainly didn't bolster the defenseman's long-shot chances. At this point, Fedun will likely serve as an extension of the coaching staff with the Baby Pens and figures to be hard-pressed to earn an NHL call-up.

Fedun was labeled day-to-day due to his lingering undisclosed injury, Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com reports Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Fedun had little chance of making the Opening Night roster unless there was an injury on the blue line or Pierre-Olivier Joseph or Ty Smith struggled during training camp. At this point, Fedun shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value even if he were to make the team.

Fedun signed a two-year, two-way contract with Pittsburgh on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Fedun hasn't appeared in an NHL game since 2019-20 when he was with the Stars, instead spending the past two years playing in the minors. With AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season, the blueliner registered five goals and 11 assists in 44 games. With the departure of Juuse Riikola, the 33-year-old Fedun could be in line for the occasional call-up this upcoming season but is unlikely to be a full-time NHL option.

According to Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com, Fedun is no longer on the Penguins' active roster, indicating he's been assigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.
EDGE Analysis
Fedun's demotion indicates Marcus Pettersson (not injury related) will likely return to the lineup Thursday against Florida. Fedun is likely in for an extended stay in the minors.

Fedun was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
With a trio of blueliners in the NHL's COVID-19 protocols, the Penguins added Fedun to provide some emergency depth ahead of Thursday's clash with the Flyers. Whether Fedun plays will depend on the availability of Kris Letang (not injury related) who is working his way back from a stint on the sidelines due to a positive COVID-19 test of his own. In eight minor-league contests for the Baby Pens, the 33-year-old Fedun has generated three assists, two PIM and a plus-4 rating.
