It's still early in the season, but it's never too early to check-in with the top prospects in the Pittsburgh Penguins system as they inch closer to the NHL.
Ryan Pawloski evaluates several Pittsburgh Penguins prospects across the AHL, WHL, and NCAA to determine who is nearing an NHL opportunity. Prospects like Bill Zonnon and Rutger McGroarty are off to strong five-point starts in the AHL, while Tristan Broz is viewed as a potential early call-up if injuries arise.
Pawloski notes that defensive depth blocks Harrison Brunicke, and time may be running out for former first-round pick Owen Pickering. In goal, 24-year-old Joel Blomqvist has recorded a .917 save percentage in the AHL while aiming for a future NHL tandem role.
