Defensemen Charlie Trethewey, the Penguins' third-round pick this summer, is a product of the Penguins Elite program. He's originally from Maryland, but moved to his father's hometown of Mt. Lebanon as a kid and his family later moved to Cranberry.
So, I had to ask Trethewey some fun Penguins- and Pittsburgh related questions -- which jersey was his first as a kid, his favorite memory of a Penguins game, favorite Penguins defenseman growing up, favorite Pittsburgh-area restaurant, and the best thing about Pittsburgh.
