If needed (really reaching), the parent club could simply sign him to a 2-way deal, correct?
We could, but to list him on our depth chart is incorrect.
Or to think he is actually worthwhile at this point.

why bother with eaton? if you're going to put a guy who isn't nhl caliber into the roster, it might as well be someone who has a future with the organization.

Why are we even talking about Eaton? He does not have a contract with Pittsburgh.

Signed a PTO with WBS -- not sure for how many games it's for, but he does not have an NHL deal.

Probably lay face down on the ice and do nothing productive, just like the other Mark Eaton.
