  • Penguins' Rickard Rakell: Begins skating

    Rakell (upper body) has started skating and joined the Penguins for their three-game road trip, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports Monday. Rakell's presence on the trip doesn't change his possible return date, as he is not eligible to play until Dec. 13 against the Canadiens at the earliest after being placed on long-term injured reserve. Still, the fact that the 30-year-old is skating certainly bodes well for a return to action sooner rather than later. With Rakell having yet to score this season in 17 contests, he may have to settle for a third-line role once activated off of LTIR.

  • Penguins' Rickard Rakell: Placed on LTIR

    Rakell (upper body) was put on long-term injured reserve Tuesday, per CapFriendly. Rakell will be out for at least 10 games and 24 days after being placed on LTIR. The Penguins announced Tuesday the 30-year-old Swede was dealing with a long-term injury. If Bryan Rust (lower body) misses any time as well, the Penguins will need to recall a pair of forwards from the minors.

  • Penguins' Rickard Rakell: Suffers upper-body injury

    Rakell is expected to be sidelined long-term due to an upper-body injury, Pens Inside Scoop reports Tuesday. Rakell's absence, combined with concerns regarding Bryan Rust's (lower body) availability, leaves the Penguins extremely thin on the right wing. If both players are shelved versus the Rangers on Wednesday, Drew O'Connor or Radim Zohorna could be elevated to a top-six role.

  • Penguins' Rickard Rakell: Contributes pair of helpers

    Rakell notched two assists, six shots on goal and two hits in Saturday's 10-2 win over the Sharks. Rakell has had a difficult start to the year -- he snapped a seven-game point drought with this effort. The 30-year-old winger hasn't lost his spot on the second line, but his power-play time has started to dwindle, though one of his helpers Saturday was with the man advantage. Rakell has three assists, 30 shots on net, 10 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 10 contests overall.

  • Penguins' Rickard Rakell: On board with helper

    Rakell recorded an assist in Friday's 4-0 win over the Capitals. Last season, Rakell put up 28 goals and 32 assists over a full season with the Penguins, which included a career-high 21 points on the man advantage. He's talented in his own right, but Rakell has the added bonus of playing alongside a future Hall of Famer in Evgeni Malkin, and opposite venerable winger Reilly Smith, who is fresh off a Stanley Cup-winning season with the Golden Knights.

  • Penguins' Rickard Rakell: Supplies goal Monday

    Rakell provided a goal in a 2-1 loss to Ottawa on Monday. The net must be looking awfully big to Rakell, given that he's contributed four goals -- along with two assists -- over his last six contests. His latest efforts couldn't save the Penguins though. He tied the contest at 1-1 with his marker late in the third period, but Ottawa quickly regained the lead. Through 70 appearances this season, Rakell has 25 goals and 50 points. This is the first time the 29-year-old has reached the 25-goal or 50-point milestones since 2017-18.

  • Penguins' Rickard Rakell: Logs an assist Tuesday

    Rakell recorded an assist and six shots in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Canadiens. Rakell grabbed a secondary assist on Kris Letang's tally in the second period. The 29-year-old Rakell has points in three straight games and seven points (two goals, five assists) in his last eight contests. He's primarily played on Pittsburgh's third line with Drew O'Connor and newly-acquired Mikael Granlund, though Rakell's value is boosted by his usage on the power play. Rakell is up to 47 points (23 goals, 24 assists) through 67 games, his highest mark since 2017-18 when he posted 69 points with Anaheim.

  • Penguins' Rickard Rakell: Three-point effort in win

    Rakell scored a goal, added two assists, went plus-2 and logged two PIM in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.

He scored in the first period and then helped out on both of Jake Guentzel's tallies later in the contest. Considering Rakell had just one assist over his last five games, this was a big performance. The 29-year-old forward is up to 19 tallies, 17 helpers, 157 shots on net, 85 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 53 outings.
