The Pittsburgh Penguins have announced that Tye Kartye will make his regular season debut in place of the injured Brandon Tanev against the Nashville Predators. This is an exciting moment for the young forward, who has been working hard to make his mark in the NHL.
Kartye was drafted by the Penguins in the fifth round of the 2019 NHL Draft. He has since been playing for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the AHL, where he has been making a name for himself. In his first season with the team, he scored 19 points in 48 games. He also had a strong showing in the AHL playoffs, scoring four points in seven games.
Kartye is known for his speed and agility, and he has the potential to be a great asset to the Penguins. He has shown he can be a reliable two-way player, and he can be counted on to make smart decisions with the puck. His ability to create offense will be a welcome addition to the Penguins’ lineup.
The Penguins are hoping that Kartye can help fill the void left by Tanev, who is out with an upper-body injury. Tanev has been a key contributor for the Penguins this season, scoring six goals and nine assists in 32 games. He has also been a valuable penalty killer, and his absence will be felt on the ice.
Kartye will have a chance to prove himself against the Predators, and it will be interesting to see how he fares in his first NHL game. It’s an exciting opportunity for him, and one that he is sure to make the most of. The Penguins are hoping that Kartye can help them get back on track and make a push for the playoffs.
