Penguins' Rutger McGroarty: Involved in three goals Friday
McGroarty recorded one goal and added two assists in Friday's 7-3 preseason win over the Blue Jackets.
McGroarty made a strong case for himself in this game, scoring with his lone shot and getting involved in two more goals across 17 shifts. It's unclear what kind of role McGroarty will have on the Penguins' depth chart once the season begins against the Rangers on Oct. 9, but he was highly productive in his final season at Michigan with 52 points across 36 contests. All signs point to him having a bottom-six role to open the year.
