Signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Penguins in April of 2024.
Waived unconditionally
Larsson was placed on unconditional waivers Tuesday for the purpose of terminating his contract, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
ANALYSIS
Larsson has appeared in just nine games for AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, posting a 3-2-1 record, .876 save percentage and 3.51 GAA. The backstop was set to hit unrestricted free agency this offseason anyway, so this will free up a contract spot for the Penguins. Larsson was, at best, third on the AHL depth chart behind Sergei Murashov and Joel Blomqvist, so this move makes plenty of sense for both sides.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Recall candidate
Larsson could be in the mix for a promotion to the Penguins' roster following Tristan Jarry's placement on waivers Wednesday, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Larsson has never played in an NHL game in his career, so he would likely need an adjustment period. With the Baby Pens this year, the 26-year-old netminder is putting up good numbers, posting a 7-4-1 record, a .927 save percentage and a 2.44 GAA. It will likely come down to a choice between Larsson and Joel Blomqvist for the No. 2 role behind Alex Nedeljkovic, who will step into the No. 1 role following Jarry's departure.
