The Pittsburgh Penguins might have to make space on their roster for a forward who impressed in the preseason opener.
The Pittsburgh Penguins may have brutally lost their preseason opener to the Buffalo Sabres, but one roster hopeful stood out from the crowd. The Sabres walked away with a 7-3 victory, but each of the Penguins’ goals was scored by forward Jesse Puljujarvi.
Puljujarvi joined the Penguins on a professional tryout agreement during the 2023-24 season, and even after signing a full deal, he wasn’t a regular in the lineup. In 22 games played, he scored three goals and added an assist for four total points. The former fourth overall pick never reached his potential as an offensive juggernaut with the Edmonton Oiler, but he’s molded his game to fit nicely in a team’s bottom six. In 356 career games, he’s scored 54 goals and 64 assists for 118 total points.
