Letang, Orpik, Martin, Niskanen, Engelland, Lovejoy, Strait, Bortuzzo, and Reese all have to clear waivers to be sent down. Reese is the only one that would. Those three don't have to clear and since they're not going to stay up if they aren't playing, they not only need to play their way into the top 6, they have to do so by a wide enough margin for the team to be willing to lose someone else for nothing. The blueline may be slightly less clogged by the time camp rolls around, but as it stands now, they have a pretty tough road in front of them.

The Penguins used three goalies, with Sean Maguire and Matt Murray alternating for the White Team. Undrafted goalie Ryan Faragher of St. Cloud State, who handled the entire afternoon for the Black Team, enjoyed the added work.
“I showed them I’m a hard worker,” Faragher said. “I compete to the end. That’s just the kind of person I am. I come from a blue-collar family. That’s the kind of work ethic I have.”
Faragher, 22, hopes a good college season this fall could draw a professional offer.

Their defensive depth is just ridiculously at this point and they could legitimately fill 2 NHL prospect pools.
