FF Exclusive Interview With Eric Tangradi
Jesse Marshall | Interviews (Faceoff Factor Exclusives)
When the Penguins traded Ryan Whitney just before the deadline last year, they didn’t just get Chris Kunitz, they nabbed Belleville prospect Eric Tangradi, who instantly became the best power-forward in the Penguins system. After suffering a horrible wrist injury at the end of the season, Tangradi is set to head to camp this year with a chance to turn some heads and make the team. If not, he’ll head to Wilkes-Barre, where his power-forward show will be on the pro circuit for the first time. We caught up with Eric this past week as he continued training for this fall.
Jesse Marshall: First off, how is the wrist feeling and how is rehab going?
Eric Tangradi: I’m currently in my 7th week following my surgery and am now going through physical therapy.

Rehab is going as planned and I am taking small steps every week.
