The Penguins sent Guentzel to AHL Wilkes Barre/Scranton on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The forward has become one of Pittsburgh's best prospects and figures to earn a recall at some point in 2016-17. Guentzel saw his first pro action last year, scoring two goals and six points in 11 AHL contests before collecting 14 points (5G, 9A) in 10 playoff tilts. He likely has the best chance among the Pens' rookies -- along with Scott Wilson -- of providing fantasy owners with value this season.
