Summary
Two rising stars, Harrison Brunicke and Tanner Howe, made waves this season with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton’s historic playoff run. Brunicke, just 20, juggled NHL stints, junior hockey, and Team Canada before thriving in the AHL playoffs after sharpening his game with Pittsburgh’s development staff. Howe battled back from a torn ACL, making a quiet but powerful comeback with 8 goals and 16 points in the regular season, then adding 3 goals in 14 playoff games — proving his resilience and readiness. Both are eager for a strong summer training camp and a bigger role next year, fueled by unforgettable playoff memories and a hunger to dominate.
