The Penguins sent Kuhnhackl down to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.
Analysis:
With Pascal Dupuis set to return to Pittsburgh's lineup Thursday against the Stars, the Penguins no longer have any need for Kuhnhackl's services as a depth forward. The 23-year-old winger never drew into the Penguins' lineup during his stay with the big club.
