TylerHOST
Um, you know, Greslick placed on IR on, on October 13th.
TylerHOST
So, I mean, that was one that I kind of just forgot about, um, you know, since he was signed to be kind of some insurance after they didn't really like what they saw from the likes of Ryan Johnson, who, who we failed to, I think we failed to mention has just been traded away from the organization.
TylerHOST
He's in Pittsburgh now.
TylerHOST
So they really didn't like him.
ChrisHOST
For sure.
ChrisHOST
Yeah.
ChrisHOST
The, yeah, the Ryan Johnson trade, we kind of, I think that might've been the week that we were, we got crossed up on schedules and I mean, it was, it's such a minor trade too.
ChrisHOST
Just the fact, you know, two minor league defensemen coming back the other way, one of which, uh, sent down to the ECHL upon his arrival.
Nick BelskyHOST
I guess technically two considering they were made at different times.
Nick BelskyHOST
Ryan Johnson, the Penguins defenseman, was reassigned to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.
Nick BelskyHOST
He was acquired via trade late last week and was a healthy scratch ever since he came to the Penguins.
Nick BelskyHOST
But with Sam Girard injured in the Vegas game, the Penguins decided to make a move, calling up Ilya Solovyov, who was a plus one with four penalty minutes for Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, and has one assist and is a plus six in three games with Wilkes-Barre this season.
Nick HorwatHOST
A little bit of a wake-up call.
Nick BelskyHOST
And here's what I see with this move.
Nick BelskyHOST
Whenever [chuckles] whenever Ryan Johnson was sent down and there was that three or four hours on Sunday when before they made the, uh, coinciding move of calling up Solovyov, everybody was like, "Ooh, something's happening.
Nick BelskyHOST
Ooh, what's going on?"
CodyHOST
Yep.
CodyHOST
All right, next up, Penguins acquired defenseman Ryan Johnson from the Buffalo Savers in exchange for defenseman Caleb Jones and defenseman Daniel Lasich.
CodyHOST
Let's go with Lasich.
GaryHOST
Let's go with that.
Paul SteigerwaldHOST
You're right.
Paul SteigerwaldHOST
They got Ryan Johnson.
Paul SteigerwaldHOST
They acquired him from Buffalo this week.
Paul SteigerwaldHOST
Are they gonna change D pairs here in the middle of this road trip? Could you see that happening?
19 MINS LATER
Paul SteigerwaldHOST
When we come back, Nick Hart joins us for a quick farm update, Farm Report on the Penguins Radio Network, presented by Clearview Federal Credit Union.
Paul SteigerwaldHOST
[upbeat music] Welcome back.
Paul SteigerwaldHOST
Before we discuss the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins situation with Nick Hart, let's hear from the newest Penguin, Ryan Johnson, a guy I guess who you could say is standing in the way of a couple of those Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguin defensemen from [laughs] getting up to Pittsburgh.
Paul SteigerwaldHOST
In any event, he was acquired from the Buffalo Sabres, a former first-round pick, for Caleb Jones [clears throat] excuse me, and Daniel Latsch.
ErinNARRATOR
Next article, Dallin to miss time with injury.
ErinNARRATOR
Ryan Johnson traded to Pittsburgh on Monday.
ErinNARRATOR
Sabres captain Rasmus Dahlin suffered an upper body injury early in the second period of Monday afternoon's 5-3 win over the Florida Panthers and will likely miss tonight's road game against the Montreal Canadiens, Coach Lindy Ruff said.
ErinNARRATOR
Ruff said Dahlin is day-to-day and wouldn't accompany the Sabres when they left to begin their three-game road trip.
ErinNARRATOR
After the Swede 26 shot the puck, he grabbed his lower back as he skated to the bench.
ErinNARRATOR
He did not play after the 3-4-4 mark on the second period.
ErinNARRATOR
Defensive man Ryan Johnson's time in the Sabres organization has ended.
ErinNARRATOR
The Sabres on Monday traded Johnson, the 31st overall pick in 2019, to the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for defensive men Caleb Jones and Daniel Latch.
Dejan KovacevicHOST
Maybe you could throw Gerrard into that.
Dejan KovacevicHOST
What if that isn't there and the team can't, as you say, play the right way as a result of the personnel that's on the blue line? What do you do then? You keep bringing in, I don't know, Buffalo's AHL guys? like this Ryan Johnson that none of us ever heard of before, or Stosny, a reject out of Edmonton of all

places,

for defense.
Dejan KovacevicHOST
Maybe you could throw Girard into that.

for defense?
Dejan KovacevicHOST
You know, there's parallel tracks that I referenced in the opening segment several times, I'm going to apply them here.
Josh GetzoffHOST
Well, Kyle, it was a busy offseason, as we highlighted in our first conversation with you on this show, and that has continued here into this regular season.
Josh GetzoffHOST
A couple of trades, really, over the last week for the Penguins in acquiring a couple of young defensemen, Spencer Stastny and Ryan Johnson.
Josh GetzoffHOST
I wanted to ask you about Stastny first, mainly because of that entire package of the trade and sending Philip Hollander off to Edmonton, making the decision that he was going to be the one to move and why Stastny was the right fit for the group at this time.
Kyle DubasGUEST
I mean, it was a situation we knew about in the summer and that we were going to come into camp and it was going to be highly competitive at the forward side of it.
Josh GetzoffHOST
So Stastny's coming to the Penguins organization.
Josh GetzoffHOST
He's played the last couple of games.
Josh GetzoffHOST
Ryan Johnson, another name, another former first round pick like Stastny that is coming to the Penguins organization.
Josh GetzoffHOST
Has yet to play any games, acquired on Monday.
HoppyHOST
I'm sorry, Isha.
HoppyHOST
Um, [laughs] the other one that I almost forgot about, 'cause again, I haven't seen this guy play since April 2023 down in Tampa, Florida, but one of my boys, Gopher alum, Ryan Johnson, gets traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins.
HoppyHOST
Should I be as happy as I currently am?
Spoked ZHOST
Yes.
Paul ZeiseHOST
Well, I will say that Cal Dubas doesn't seem like he's sitting still.
Paul ZeiseHOST
He made a trade for Ryan Johnson.
Paul ZeiseHOST
Is that going to change or fix or help anything?
Dan KingerskiGUEST
No, Ryan Johnson is, I believe anyway, he's going to be depth while Trevor Van Riemsdyk is hurt.
Dan KingerskiGUEST
Then when Van Riemsdyk gets healthy, you're going to see sort of a little battle, I suspect, between Spencer Stastny, who they traded for last week, and TBR.
Dan KingerskiGUEST
Ryan Johnson, you know, he's a bubble player, predominantly AHL, not NHL.
Paul ZeiseHOST
So, in other words, just kind of getting some depth is not always going to help fix the problems.
Paul ZeiseHOST
It's funny, and I guess this is what you have when you have a young player, although he's not as young as I think people think, but Sergei Merzhov, a couple of games ago, had 45, 46 saves.
