Angello was returned to the Penguins' taxi squad Wednesday, Rob Rossi of The Athletic reports.
Angello has cracked Pittsburgh's lineup for three straight games, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him back on the active roster ahead of Thursday's game versus Philadelphia. He's gone scoreless while averaging just 7:11 of ice time in his three top-level appearances this season.
Angello was promoted to the active roster ahead of Saturday's game versus the Islanders, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.
It's uncertain if Angello will play in Saturday's game versus the Islanders, but he'll be eligible to because of this transaction. The 24-year-old forward has just eight NHL games under his belt, producing a goal, five shots on net and 13 hits in that stretch.
Angello was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton to the taxi squad Thursday.
Angello has two points over two AHL games this year. The 24-year-old power forward is being called up to add depth following news that Jason Zucker (lower body) is out "longer term." He can practice and travel with the team while on the taxi squad.
Angello was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday.
Angello, along with Frederick Gaudreau, were swapped out for Josh Currie and Jordy Bellerive in order to get the two veterans some much-needed game action after spending the first month of the season on the taxi squad. Even once Angello is brought back to the taxi squad, which he's a near-lock for, he figures to remain a fringe roster player and could spend more time in the minors on occasion.
Angello was recalled to the Penguins' taxi squad Thursday.
Angello saw action in eight games for Pittsburgh last year in which he garnered one goal on five shots, 13 hits and four PIM. The promotion of Angello is likely a cautionary move after Evan Rodgirues (lower body) was placed on long-term injured reserve, as Angello will likely be hard-pressed to break into an NHL game barring additional forward injuries.
Angello was assigned to AHL Wilkes/Barre-Scranton on Monday, Mike DeFabo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Angello started the season on the Penguins' taxi squad, and he'll begin preparing for the AHL season. The 24-year-old spent most of his time in the minors last season, and he accrued 16 goals, nine assists and 55 PIM over 48 games.
Angello signed a two-year, two-way pact with the Penguins on Saturday.
Angello's chances of making the 23-man roster for Opening Night took a big hit when the team signed Evan Rodrigues and Mark Jankowski in free agency. Still, the 24-year-old center tallied 16 goals and nine helpers in 48 games with the Baby Pens and should be near the top of the list of potential call-ups this season.
Angello (upper body) took part in Monday's non-scrimmage practice, Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com reports.
Angello was part of the nine-player quarantine group that returned to the ice Monday. The natural center figures to be a longshot for the lineup for the first round against the Habs, even if an injury or two impacts the Pens, making him a non-factor for postseason pools.
Angello is week-to-week after sustaining an upper-body injury against Ottawa on Tuesday, Rob Rossi of The Athletic reports.
The Penguins continue to struggle to shake off the injury bug, though Nick Bjugstad (abdomen) could slot back into the lineup versus Buffalo on Thursday. Prior to getting hurt, Angello was likely headed back to the minors once both Bjugstand and Brandon Tanev (illness) are cleared to return.
Angello was promoted from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Tuesday.
Angello will provide the Penguins with emergency depth while Zach Aston-Reese (lower body) and Dominik Simon (upper body) remain on the shelf. The 23-year-old Angello is unlikely to break into the lineup versus the Senators on Tuesday over Sam Lafferty.
Angello was sent down to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Monday.
Angello appeared in seven games with the NHL squad, scoring one goal and averaging 5:37 of ice time. After the Penguins acquired a few forwards Monday, both Angello and Sam Lafferty were sent back to the minors. The 23-year-old has 25 points in 45 AHL contests this season.
Angello scored his first career goal, and first career point, in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
Appearing in only his fifth NHL game as a last-minute substitute for Evgeni Malkin (illness), Angello quickly capitalized on the opportunity by tipping home a Sam Lafferty point shot late in the first period. The rookie has been fairly productive for AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season with 16 goals and 25 points through 45 games, but Angello's unlikely to make much fantasy impact even if he does begin to draw into the Pittsburgh lineup more frequently.
Angello was promoted from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.
Angello has yet to appear in an NHL game but could get that opportunity versus the Flyers on Friday. Rather than bring back Sam Lafferty -- who was shipped down prior to the All-Star break -- the club opted to give Angello a look, which shouldn't come as a surprise considering the center is leading the Baby Pens with 16 goals in 45 appearances this year.
