Don't think he has NHL upside. Not worth the contract slot.

That's not the intent. Dubas had a presser, and said the next order of business was to make some AHL signings. Wilkes-Barre was awful. So there's probaly going to be more deals like this from Dubas, to try and make the Baby Penguins an actual team again.

fair, but he's not good enough in the AHL to get an NHL contract.

Koppanen is an AHLer, not an NHLEer. His signing adds depth to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.

It's a two way deal. He won't have the same salary in the AHL.

Salary doesn't matter. It's more about contract slots

It doesn't matter. If the Penguins success comes down to who occupies their 40-50 range contracts, the season's lost anyway.
