There have been a lot of positive developments for the Pittsburgh Penguins over the first few weeks of the 2021-22 NHL season. That may seem like a weird thing to say for a team that has spent the entire season to this point playing without almost all of its best players, but the way the depth players have stepped forward to help the team get off to a 3-1-2 start has been a significant deal.
Among those positive developments has been a strong start to the season for veteran winger Jason Zucker.
Zucker was a huge wild card for the Penguins entering the season because there really was not much idea as to what to expect from him.
