Jesse Puljujarvi, the former 4th overall NHL draft pick, has inked a professional tryout (PTO) deal with the Wilkes Barre Scranton Penguins, the AHL affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The 25-year-old forward, with 334 NHL games under his belt, aims to make a comeback after undergoing double hip surgery.
This strategic move by Penguins' GM Kyle Dubas suggests a potential return to the NHL if Puljujarvi proves his worth during his time with the AHL squad.
Stay tuned for updates on his journey back to the NHL.
