Penguins' Jack St. Ivany: Adds physicality to roster
Rotowire
St. Ivany played in 14 games for the Penguins this season, picking up 30 hits, 14 blocks and one assist.
St. Ivany shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of offensive output -- he managed just 15 points in 53 minor-league contests this year -- but he is certainly capable of delivering hits. It seems the 24-year-old blueliner has earned the trust of the Penguins' coaching staff, as he played regularly in the final two months of the season while the Pens were trying to secure a playoff spot. St. Ivany will be a restricted free agent in the offseason.

St. Ivany was promoted from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.
St. Ivany has yet to make his NHL debut despite earning his third promotion in the month of March. If the Pens do opt to give the blueliner a look against the Stars on Friday, it would likely be at the expense of Pierre-Olivier Joseph or John Ludvig. For his part, the 24-year-old St. Ivany has notched four goals and 11 helpers in 53 minor-league contests this season.
