Report: Penguins in on Dartmouth’s O’Connor

The Penguins are one of the teams looking to sign Dartmouth forward Drew O'Connor, according to a report by Rhode Island-based reporter Mark Divver.

O'Connor is a sophomore but is looking to turn pro next season, according to Divver. College players lose their NCAA eligibility when they sign a professional contract, so if O'Connor does sign this summer he will turn pro next season.

O'Connor, who turns 22 this summer, is a 6-foot-3, 200-pound left-handed shot. He played exclusively wing as a freshman, but has spent some time at center this season.
