In the video, they showed the key moments of Ruhwedel's time in Pittsburgh where he was apart of the two peating group that made them win two Stanley Cups in 2016 and 2017.

Over the years in Pittsburgh, Ruhwedel became known for his ability to spend
long periods of time out of the lineup yet return without missing a beat. In 326 games with the Penguins, he scored 13 goals and 34 assists for 47 total points.

Chad Ruhwedel has yet to play for the New York Rangers and is currently serving as a 7th D, something he is very familiar with as he was dealt that role in Pittsburgh aswell.

A true professional and we wish the former Penguin all the best.
