In the Pittsburgh Penguins prospect pipeline but signed with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins for the 2025-26 season, Max Graham scored two goals in a pair of wins for the Wheeling Nailers last week. The 2024 fifth round pick acquired from the New Jersey Devils as part of the Cody Glass trade last season recorded 35 points in 34 games with the Kelowna Rockets in the WHL before missing the rest of the season with a knee injury. The five goals tie the 6’3, 209 lbs. forward for the team lead. Graham scored three goals in three consecutive games near the start of the season before going without a point for three games.

Graham hopes to find the scoresheet with more consistency in Wheeling and ultimately earn a contract with Pittsburgh by the end of the season.
