Penguins training camp: What Bryan Rust and Willie Nelson have in common

What do Bryan Rust and Willie Nelson have in common? Maybe not too much on the surface but in 2018 their paths have crossed a bit.

In Willie’s latest album, “Last Man Standing” the Red Headed Stranger sings in the titular track:

“I don’t wanna be the last man standing, or wait a minute maybe I do”.

The Penguin forward can relate. Rust signed a four year, $14 million dollar contract this past offseason to tie him to Pittsburgh for the foreseeable future. But, with other off-season moves, it basically made him the last man standing in a sense.
