Usually when Rutger McGroarty isn’t mentioned in this feature, someone will ask why. Well, believe it or not a 20-year old singular member of an AHL team doesn’t always require comment every week. Sometimes it’s business as usual and that’s not much to write home about.
This week, however, was not one of those weeks. McGroarty incredibly noticeable and had an important place in the spotlight during the WB/S Pens’ 1-1-1 week of road games. McGroatry put up 2G+1A in the three games, and is up to an impressive seven points (2G+5A) in his last five AHL games.
