UN Ambassador Haley resigning in latest Trump shake-up

<p>WILKES-BARRE &#8212; Tristan Jarry traveled with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins to Pittsburgh on Tuesday as the team eventually makes it way to Cleveland for a road trip.</p><p>The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton players will practice at the UPMC Sports Complex in Cranberry Township on Wednesday, but even though he traveled with the team, Jarry won&#8217;t be practicing with the AHL squad.</p><p>Four days after he was reassigned by Pittsburgh, the 23-year-old netminder was summoned back to the NHL after it was announced that starting netminder Matt Murray was dealing with a concussion.</p><p>While Jarry didn&#8217;t play in the season opener on Saturday, his brief stay with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton was productive. He declared himself 100 percent healthy after dealing with a lower body injury at the end of Pittsburgh&#8217;s training camp. Jarry also practiced twice with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, working off any rust from his injury absence.</p><p>&#8220;It will be fun to go back,&#8221; Jarry said. &#8220;I had a couple of good practices here.&#8221;</p><p>While head coach Clark Donatelli anointed Jarry as his number one goaltender when he arrived and said he would play the bulk of the games, his departure doesn&#8217;t throw the goaltending mix into disarray.</p><p>Wilkes-Barre/Scranton held on to both Anthony Peters and John Muse after Jarry arrived, and both goaltenders traveled with the team for a pair of games in Cleveland later this week.</p><p>Donatelli initially said either Peters or Muse would be dropped from the roster at some point after Jarry arrived, but now he&#8217;s glad he didn&#8217;t make a move.</p><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s funny how that works out. That&#8217;s why we have depth at the goaltending position,&#8221; Donatelli said. &#8220;With Peters and Muse, we&#8217;ll be fine.&#8221;</p><p>For his part, Jarry is also fine if he bounces back-and-forth between Pittsburgh and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season.</p><p>&#8220;I did it quite a bit last year. It&#8217;s part of the deal,&#8221; Jarry said. &#8220;It&#8217;s something you have to get used to.&#8221;</p><p><strong>NOTES</strong></p><p>After the Penguins practice at Pittsburgh&#8217;s facility on Wednesday, they&#8217;ll make the final leg of the trip to Cleveland, where they&#8217;ll play the Monsters twice.</p><p>Donatelli said he likes a road trip where all the games are played in one location.</p><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not bad. We get there and settle in for two games, and we don&#8217;t get to do it too often,&#8221; he said.</p><p>Forward Jimmy Hayes said an early season road trip is a benefit for new players such as himself.</p><p>&#8220;Being a new guy, it&#8217;s always great to get on the road early and build team chemistry,&#8221; Hayes said.</p><style>
