A season of unfortunate timing for this Pittsburgh Penguins forward may have eventually timed out right for him. What’s up next can mean everything.

Timing can be a cruel thing, but it can also be a good thing. For Jake Guentzel and the Pittsburgh Penguins, that statement couldn’t be more accurate. Just hours after being selected to his first-ever All-Star, he smashed into the boards, and you know the rest.

Under normal circumstances, Penguins fans wouldn’t have seen him again.
