In 2013, the Pittsburgh Penguins used a second-round draft pick to select their goaltender of the future.
In 2023, they ensured Tristan Jarry will remain their goaltender for the foreseeable future.
On Saturday, the team re-signed its starting goaltender to a considerable five-year contract that carries a salary cap hit of $5.375 million.
Jarry, 28, appeared in 47 games last season and posted a 24-13-7 record, a 2.90 goals-against average, a .909 save percentage and two shutouts. Various injuries, however, hobbled him during the second half of the season.
