In less than a week, the Pittsburgh penguins a training camp will start which is more competitive than any other from memory.
And there can be a perspective to keep an eye attentive.
Signed in a two -year AHL contract in the summer of 2024, striker Atley Calvert generated a buzz. The 21 -year -old – A Warriors Moose Jaw Warriors product – has shown some lightnings of a game that could translate to the NHL, and he can put the washer at the back of the net.
After an excellent season with Moose Jaw in 2023-24 – when he recorded 47 goals and 95 points in 68 games, in addition to eight goals and 20 points in 20 eliminatory matches of Calder Cup – The Penguins organization took a chance on Calvert, which was not drafted. They looked at him as well because he was the teammate of The former hope of the Penguins Brayden Yager.
And the 6 -foot center 1 inch and 194 pounds did not take a while to impress the brass of the Penguins. In 38 ECHL games with the Nailers Wheeling in 2024-25, Calvert scored 13 goals and 36 points, and in 26 AHL games with Wilkes-Barre / Scranton (WBS), he recorded nine goals and 14 points.
Calvert is perhaps somewhat known for his ability to score goals so far in his professional career, but he has been announced as a deceptive and misleading advantage before signing with the Penguins. He is an intelligent player in the three zones, which corresponds to the mold many Young perspectives Pittsburgh recently added to their system.
Calvert has a goal so far The challenge of this year’s prospects in Buffalo, New York, and there could be much more in store this season for the young attacker. Do not count it as a potential star in the training camp this year.
