Hark. Is That Opportunity I Hear Knocking on the Penguins’ Door?

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK…

There’s an old adage about opportunity knocking on your door. Another about striking while the iron’s hot.

Is opportunity knocking on the Penguins’ door vis-à-vis goalie Tristan Jarry?

Out in Pittsburgh west (Vancouver), where former black-and-gold GM Jim Rutherford resides, the Canucks are in a bit of a pickle. Starting goalie Thatcher Demko has a rare lower-body ailment which has been deemed inoperable. While the injury doesn’t appear to be career-threatening, the 28-year-old netminder missed a good chunk of last spring’s playoffs and the start of training camp as well.
