D. Simon - F

CGY

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is reporting that Dominik Simon is unlikely to get a qualifying offer.

Simon had shoulder surgery in late April was not able to return in time for the playoffs. He had seven goals and 22 points in 64 games with the Penguins this season and according to GM Jim Rutherford, Simon is not going to get a qualifying offer unless something happens by Friday. “Dominik would be the one that would be tough to qualify because he has arbitration rights,” Rutherford said. “We don’t know where that number goes. We can’t risk getting put over the cap.”
