• Penguins' Zach Trotman: Out 4-6 weeks

  01/15/2021 • By RotoWire

  Trotman underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee and will be out 4-6 weeks. Regardless of when Trotman is cleared to play, he will almost certainly end up on the taxi squad or perhaps even in the minors, as the Penguins are relatively deep on the blue line following the offseason additions of Mike Matheson and Cody Ceci. Without a path to regular ice time, Trotman figures to be a non-factor in fantasy leagues this year.

  Trotman is on injured reserve with an undisclosed injury, Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com reports. Trotman missed the 2020 postseason with an undisclosed injury, so it's not clear if this latest problem is related.

Trotman is a long-shot for the Penguins' Opening Night roster -- it's more likely he's a candidate for the taxi squad since he has 91 games of NHL experience under his belt.
