Pens Acquire Thorburn

The Pittsburgh Penguins have acquired rugged, 6'3" 210 lb forward, Chris Thorburn. Thorburn was waived by the Buffalo Sabres after having a very strong camp for the team. The Penguins had ample opportunity to watch him in action after meeting Buffalo several times during the preseason.

The Penguins will have to make a roster move to get back to the 23 man limit.
