Jan Drozg: Signs with KHL club
Drozg agreed to terms on a one-year contract with Amur Khabarovsk (KHL) on Thursday, Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com reports.
Drozg was selected by the Penguins in the fifth round of the 2017 NHL Draft but never made an appearance for the club. The 23-year-old winger was a restricted free agent this offseason before Pittsburgh opted against giving him a qualifying offer to retain his player rights. At this point, Drozg should be considered a long shot to ever get into an NHL contest.

Penguins' Jan Drozg: Returning for camp
Drozg is headed back from his loan stint overseas to join Pittsburgh ahead of training camp, Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com reports.
In 10 games for Ljubljana Olimpija HK, Drozg racked up an impressive seven goals and 10 helpers in 10 outings. The Penguins are pretty deep on the right-wing, so Drozg will likely be a long shot for the 23-man roster but could land on the taxi squad instead of heading straight to the AHL.

Penguins' Jan Drozg: Heads out on loan
Drozg will start the 2020-21 season on loan with Slovenian club HK Olimpija Ljubljana, Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com reports.
Drzog split time last season between the minor-league levels. The 21-year-old winger struggled to produce with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, as he managed a mere eight points in 32 outings compared to 13 goals and 10 helpers in 24 games with ECHL Wheeling. Drozg figures to be a long-shot to break into the Penguins' lineup in the near future.
