Penguins Drop Nailers, Pick Everblades | Pittsburgh Penguins News
Description
The Pittsburgh Penguins are ending a 29-year partnership with the Wheeling Nailers, moving their ECHL affiliate to the Florida Everblades — owned by the same Hoffmann Family of Companies now behind the Penguins. Fans mourn the loss of the accessible, affordable, and beloved Nailers, who served as a vital developmental pipeline for Penguins prospects. GM Kyle Dubas paid tribute to the Nailers’ legacy and impact, while the move reflects new ownership’s preference for the Florida team — a business decision that closes one chapter and opens another for the Penguins’ minor league system.
