Pittsburgh Penguins’ first-round pick in 2024 NHL Draft goes to San Jose Sharks
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — The Pittsburgh Penguins’ first-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft officially belongs to the San Jose Sharks.
The league’s draft lottery was on Tuesday, and the Penguins’ pick was slotted in at No. 14, meeting the conditions of the pick going to the Sharks.
In August 2023, the Penguins acquired defenseman Erik Karlsson from the San Jose Sharks in a three-team trade that included the Montreal Canadiens. In the deal, the Penguins sent their 2024 first-round pick, which was top-10 protected for this year’s draft, to San Jose.
This season, Karlsson played in 82 games, notching 11 goals and 45 assists.
But the Penguins could still get a first-round pick this year. If the Carolina Hurricanes reach the Stanley Cup Final, the second-round pick Pittsburgh received in the Jake Guentzel trade will become a first-round pick. The Hurricanes are down 1-0 in a best-of-seven series to the New York Rangers in the second round.
The Sharks won the draft lottery on Tuesday. The Chicago Blackhawks came in at No. 2, followed by the Anaheim Ducks, Columbus Blue Jackets and Montreal Canadiens.
The 2024 NHL Draft is June 28-29 at the Sphere in Las Vegas.

Pittsburgh native Jeff Goldbum makes Met Gala debut
NEW YORK (KDKA) — Pittsburgh native Jeff Goldblum made his Met Gala debut on Monday night.
Goldblum arrived at the Met Gala wearing a loose-fitting black suit over a white shirt with a wife scarf. He wore floral brooches, appearing to stay on theme for the dress code, “The Garden of Time.”
“I’m very interested in tonight’s artistic assignment and the theme of ‘Garden of Time,’ how you can hold back the inevitable destruction and how we can enjoy the moment and turn it into something,” Goldblum said in an interview posted to The Hollywood Reporter’s X account.
The Met Gala is an annual fundraiser at the Metropolitan Museum of Art that brings out the biggest names in fashion. This year’s event kicked off the latest costume exhibit called “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.”
Goldblum was there with his “Wicked” costars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. Goldblum is playing the legendary Wizard of Oz in the big screen adaptation of the musical.
Goldblum grew up in West Homestead and graduated from the old West Mifflin North High School. As his interest in theater grew in high school, he entered a summer drama program at what is now Carnegie Mellon University. At 17, he moved to New York City to begin his career.
The actor is known for movies like “Jurassic Park,” “Independence Day” and “The Fly.” Also a musician, Goldblum will be back in Pittsburgh for a concert at the Benedum Center with The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra on June 1.
