Gruden was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday, per Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports.
Scouting Report
The son of former NHL defenseman John Gruden has natural point-producing acumen and good hockey sense. He is equally comfortable scoring goals himself or setting up linemates. Does not have ideal size for the National Hockey League, so he needs to add more bulk and get physically stronger in order to maximize output at the highest level. Also lacks consistency.
Long Range Potential: Solid, point-producing forward with upside.
