Guentzel named to All-Star Game

Tristan Jarry won't be the only Penguins player in the All-Star Game this year.

The NHL's "Last Men In" vote to name one final player from each division to the All-Star Game rosters closed on Tuesday at midnight.

Jake Guentzel, the Penguins' candidate, finished second in voting in the Metropolitan Division to the Rangers' Mika Zibanejad. Zibanejad had to withdraw from the All-Star Game due to personal reasons, so Guentzel will be going in his place.

This is the second time Guentzel has been named to an All-Star roster, but the first time he'll actually be able to participate.
