There are more eyes than usual on Wilkes-Barre these days with Tristan Jarry in town for a conditioning assignment in the AHL.
The erstwhile Penguin goalie was sent away from the NHL team mid-road trip and popped up in Wilkes on Saturday to play his first AHL game since April of 2019. Jarry’s first step in rebuilding himself went well, stopping 32 shots and being named first star in WB/S’s 3-2 win over Syracuse.
The Pens had lost 2-0 to the same Syracuse team on Friday for their only other game of the week.
Jarry looks to be in good spirits as he attempts to make the best of the awkward situation of publicly having to play himself back into the good graces of the team.
