Harrison Brunicke Impresses in Penguins Preseason Loss

News summary

Pittsburgh Penguins' 18-year-old defenseman Harrison Brunicke continues to impress during the preseason, assisting on the team's only goal in a 2-1 loss to the Detroit Red Wings. Coach Mike Sullivan praised Brunicke's impactful play, noting his strong performance in all three zones and growing confidence. Brunicke, the Penguins' second-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft, skated 18 minutes and contributed significantly in offensive rushes and defensive plays. His partnership with veteran Marcus Pettersson has been beneficial, as Brunicke seeks to secure a spot on the NHL roster rather than returning to his junior team. Despite the loss, the Penguins showcased over 40 shots on goal, though they struggled with their power play. The team's management is considering giving Brunicke an extended evaluation in the coming games.
