From celebrating birthdays with kids to taking selfies with ticket holders, it was a fun day for the Penguins and the fans alike as they both get ready for the upcoming season to get underway.
Jake Guentzel even got quizzed about his health and the status of his ankle by one ticket holder.
"How’s the ankle feeling? You doing alright?" Jake Guentzel was asked by Tyler Spagnolo.
