Penguins prospects enjoy pickleball outing as part of development camp

DALLAS, TX - Pittsburgh Penguins prospects played pickleball on Sunday afternoon in conjunction with the team's annual development camp.

After hitting the ice at the UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex in Cranberry Township, PA for their daily workout, players headed to the nearby Piperplex to enjoy America's fastest-growing sport as a group.


The Penguins released a video showcasing the experience, and prospect Owen Pickering was prominently featured in the clip.

Pickering was rather vocal during his matches, which would undoubtedly make a pro like Julian Arnold proud.


According to the Penguins' Instagram Story, prospects Jason Beck and Gabe Klassen ultimately won the tournament.
