Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins News Release


WILKES-BARRE, Pa. - The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins announced today that the Pittsburgh Penguins have reassigned defenseman Finn Harding to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton from the Wheeling Nailers.

Harding is in his first full season of professional hockey and has gathered five assists in his first 14 AHL games with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.

The 20-year-old rearguard, who was reassigned to Wheeling on Nov. 25, produced four assists in seven games with the Nailers this season. Wheeling went 6-0-1-0 in Harding's seven contests. He also skated in three regular-season games for Wheeling at the end of last season, followed by five playoff games. He did not post any points in that time.

A seventh-round draft pick (223rd overall) by Pittsburgh in 2024, Harding spent the previous three seasons playing in the Ontario Hockey League for the Mississauga and Brampton Steelheads. In 2024-25, he set the Steelheads' franchise records for the most assists in a single season for a defenseman (50) and single-season plus-minus (+46).

Harding amassed 101 points (19G-82A) in 198 career OHL games.

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton's next game is Wednesday, Dec. 10, when the team treks to play the Hartford Wolf Pack. Game time at PeoplesBank Arena is slated for 7:05 p.m.

The Penguins return to home ice next Saturday, Dec. 13 for a skirmish with the Providence Bruins. Next Saturday is also the Penguins' Teddy Bear Toss. Fans are encouraged to bring new, unwrapped, stuffed toys to throw on the ice after Wilkes-Barre/Scranton's first goal. All of the stuffed animals will be donated to Operation Santa Claus, a charitable organization operating out of Tobyhanna Army Depot. Puck drop between the Penguins and P-Bruins is scheduled for 6:05 p.m.
