Penguins add forward and defenseman in Round 5 of 2025 NHL Draft

The Pittsburgh Penguins made two draft picks in the fifth round of the 2025 NHL Entry draft. With their first pick of the round (130th) overall the Pens added forward Ryan Miller out of Portland of the WHL. On their next turn (148th) Pittsburgh selected defender Quinn Beauchesne from Guelph of the OH.

Miller projects as a hard-working center/left wing.

Miller was ranked 60th by Central Scouting among North American skaters

Along the walls, Miller is one of the best. He gets low to absorb contact, throws reverse hits, and intercepts opponents with his back.
