We’re only one week away from a Penguin (prospects) hockey game

Hockey is almost back, you guys

It feels like September just started, but all of a sudden we’re one week away from players in Penguin jerseys competing on the ice.

Scheduling via the Sabres:

Friday, Sept. 13

Boston vs. Pittsburgh, 12 p.m.

New Jersey vs. Ottawa, 3:30 p.m.

Columbus vs. Buffalo, 7 p.m.

Saturday, Sept. 14 (Fan Fest and Hockeyfest)

Pittsburgh vs. Ottawa, 12 p.m.

Columbus vs. Boston, 3:30 p.m.

New Jersey vs. Buffalo, 7 p.m.

Monday, Sept. 16

Boston vs. New Jersey, 10 a.m.

Ottawa vs. Columbus, 1:30 p.m.

Pittsburgh vs. Buffalo, 5 p.m.

The Sabres mentioned to stay tune for streaming options, which based on memory I believe was limited in the past to only the games the Buffalo prospects were playing in. The Penguins have not announced if they will be broadcasting this games in any internet audio or video formats yet. The WBSPenguins website said there are no plans for games to be broadcast, which isn’t a great sign for people who won’t be in Western New York this weekend.

The Penguins announced their roster earlier this summer. Brayden Yager has been traded since then, but his counterpart Rutger McGroarty will slide into his place.
