Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins News Release


WILKES-BARRE, Pa. - The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins announced today that they have assigned forward Troy Josephs to their ECHL affiliate, the Wheeling Nailers.

Josephs is a second-year pro who recorded one point, an assist, in one game played with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season.

He posted excellent numbers with the Nailers last season, putting up 16 goals and 20 assists for 36 points in 43 games in the ECHL. The Whitby, Ontario native also notched his first career hat trick on Feb. 2, 2018 against the Indy Fuel. Josephs skated in four games with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton last season, as well, but did not produce any points in that time.

Originally a seventh round pick (209th overall) by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft, Josephs turned pro last season after a four-year career at Clarkson University. The 24-year-old also won the 2013 Ontario Junior Hockey League championship as a member of the St. Michael's Buzzers.
