The Penguins had to wait until pick #58 to get their first selection in the 2021 NHL entry draft. They used it on forward Tristan Broz.
Broz had the following pre-draft scouting rankings:
- 43rd: TSN Bob McKenzie consensus list
- 49th: Dobber Prospects
- 61st: McKeen Hockey
Smaht scouting reported:
Tristan Broz is certainly an intriguing prospect. He’s capable of playing anywhere up front, but sees the majority of his ice time on the left wing. He plays an excellent two-way game, and can produce effectively in all areas of the ice.
