Jonathan Gruden recorded the 100th point of his AHL career by assisting on Matt Nieto's goal in the first period of the game.

Jonathan Gruden was a regular player for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins last season and has been assigned to the AHL affiliate again. His experience and performance in the AHL will be crucial as the team prepares for the upcoming season.

Jonathan Gruden is making a strong case for a call-up to the NHL after scoring his first pre-season goal, which turned out to be the game-winner against Columbus. He showcased his skills by skating a pre-season high of 11:04 and consistently being a noticeable presence on the ice, contributing with shots on goal and rebounds. Although he is expected to start the season in the AHL, his recent performances suggest he could earn more playing time in the NHL compared to last season, where he only appeared in 13 games.

Jonathan Gruden skated with Emil Bemström and Jesse Puljujärvi and was part of the best performing line until Drew O’Connor left the game with a concussion.

Jonathan Gruden scored his first NHL goal for the Pittsburgh Penguins in the game against Calgary Flames, showcasing his talent and potential as a rising player in the league.
