Prospect
Signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Penguins in July of 2025.
Snags two helpers
Kindel notched two power-play assists in Thursday's 5-3 win over Washington.
ANALYSIS
With injuries piling up for the Penguins, Kindel found himself elevated not only to the first line but also the No. 1 power-play unit, where he is playing with three future Hall-of-Famers. The 18-year-old Kindel didn't look out of place at all, even feeding a cross-ice pass to Sidney Crosby. When the team is fully healthy, Kindel likely will be shifted back to the third-line center role, but he may have secured his place on the top power-play unit with Thursday's performance.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Slated to be healthy scratch
Kindel might be a healthy scratch for Wednesday's game against Buffalo, per Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
ANALYSIS
Kindel has five goals and eight points in 19 appearances this season. The 18-year-old rookie was taken with the No. 11 overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft. The occasional game off is understandable for a young forward, and he'll probably get back into the lineup soon. In the meantime, Ville Koivunen is set to draw back into the lineup Wednesday after missing Pittsburgh's last three games due to a lower-body injury.
