I just stumbled on this cute moment from February, and it's worth sharing.
Valtteri Puustinen, the Penguins' seventh-round pick in 2019, was skating in warmups for his Finnish club HPK when he saw a young fan with a sign with his nickname, followed by "Rock, paper, scissors, puck" in Finnish.
Puustinen and the girl went best-of-three. Puustinen won the first match, the girl won the second, and the girl won the third, and won the puck.
Here’s how the Penguins’ prospects in juniors, college, and Europe did this week:
