Penguins' Evgeni Malkin: Moves up team record list
Malkin scored a goal late in the third period of Tuesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Lightning.
The Pens had the extra attacker on the ice when Malkin scored his 10th goal of the season at 17:44 of the third. It was his sixth game-tying goal in the final three minutes of regulation to pass Mario Lemieux, Jaromir Jagr, Rick Kehoe and Jake Guentzel (each with five) for the second most in franchise history. Sidney Crosby holds the record (eight). Malkin is on a personal, albeit injury-interrupted, six-game scoring streak that includes four goals, four assists and four power-play points (one goal). He also has eight PIM and 12 shots in that span.

Penguins' Arturs Silovs: Does his part and more in loss
Silovs made 30 saves in a 2-1 shootout loss to the Lightning on Tuesday.
He'd like the goal back. Silovs dropped the puck late in the third after stopping a shot, and J.J. Moser was right there to poke it underneath him. Silovs did his part Tuesday, but he needs some help. The Pens have scored two goals (total) in three straight losses (0-2-1). Silovs is 4-1-1 in his last six starts, and he's 8-6-7 with one shutout, 3.06 GAA and .892 save percentage in 21 starts. He also has two rare goalie assists this season.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Returning versus Bolts
Rust (lower body) will be in the lineup against Tampa Bay on Tuesday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
With his lower-body injury behind him, Rust figures to return to a first-line role alongside Sidney Crosby in addition to linking back up with the No. 1 power-play unit. Since the start of December, the 33-year-old Rust has tallied nine goals and nine helpers, including eight power-play points, over 18 games. Given his offensive upside and a spot playing with Crosby, Rust figures to offer top-end fantasy value the rest of the way.

Penguins' Arturs Silovs: First goalie off Tuesday
Silovs was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports, indicating he'll be between the pipes at home versus the Lightning.
Silovs continues to work every other game, splitting the workload with Stuart Skinner. In his last six outings, the 24-year-old Silovs is sporting a 4-2-0 record, 3.13 GAA and .875 save percentage. Skinner has allowed just one goal in each of his last four outings, so Silovs can't afford any missteps right now if he wants to keep getting opportunities.

Penguins' Tristan Broz: Recalled from minors
Broz was promoted from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Tuesday.
Broz will change places with Rafael Harvey-Pinard, who was sent down to the minors in a corresponding move. Selected by the Pens in the second round of the 2021 NHL Draft, the 23-year-old Broz has racked up 11 goals and 13 helpers in 33 games for the Baby Pens. With the youngster on the NHL roster, he could be pressed into service versus the Lightning on Tuesday.

Penguins' Rafael Harvey-Pinard: Sent back to minors
Harvey-Pinard was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Tuesday.
Harvey-Pinard was called up by the Penguins on Saturday but served as a healthy scratch for the last two games. The 27-year-old winger has appeared in just one NHL game over the last two seasons and will now head back to the minors. With the Baby Pens, Harvey-Pinard has notched seven goals and six helpers in 32 outings.

Penguins' Ryan Graves: Called up from minors
Graves was promoted from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Tuesday.
Graves' call-up comes after Erik Karlsson (lower body) was placed on injured reserve. Even with his elevation to the NHL roster, the 30-year-old Graves is far from a lock to play in Tuesday's matchup with the Lightning. In his 17 NHL games this year, Graves has managed just one point, 19 shots and 13 hits.

Penguins' Erik Karlsson: Lands on injured reserve
Karlsson was placed on injured reserve Tuesday with a lower-body injury. Per Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports, Karlsson will be out of action for at least two weeks.
Karlsson logged 23:12 of ice time in Sunday's clash with the Bruins, so it's not immediately clear when he suffered this lower-body injury. In order to bolster the team's defensive options, Ryan Graves was called up from the minors in a corresponding move. Karlsson has just one goal in his last 12 outings, but he has chipped in seven helpers over that stretch.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Snags three-year deal
Lizotte agreed to terms on a three-year, $6.75 million contract extension with Pittsburgh on Monday.
While Lizotte may not have a ton of fantasy upside, he has 10 points in 35 games this season, but he plays significant shorthanded minutes for the Penguins (2:32 per game). As such, it's not a shock to see the organization locking up the fourth-line center for another three years at a reasonable $2.25 million cap hit.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Sent to AHL for conditioning
Jones (lower body) was assigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Monday for a conditioning loan.
Jones hasn't played since Oct. 23 against Florida due to injury. He has one assist, five shots on goal, 15 blocked shots and 10 hits in seven NHL outings this season. Once he is ready to return to the Pittsburgh lineup, the team will need to activate him from the injured reserve list.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Beaten once Sunday
Skinner stopped 17 of 18 shots in Sunday's 1-0 loss to the Bruins.
Skinner was beaten by Viktor Arvidsson's backhander in the first period, and that would be all the offense the Bruins would generate throughout the game. Even though Skinner posted a strong showing between the pipes, the offense didn't support him, which led to the end of his three-game winning streak. He continues to play well at an individual level despite the win-loss record, though, as Skinner has now posted four straight games with a save percentage of at least .915, allowing just one goal in each of those contests.

Penguins' Bill Zonnon: Hat trick in QMJHL win
Zonnon scored three goals in QMJHL Blainville-Boisbriand's 5-0 win over Cape Breton on Sunday.
Zonnon had posted just one goal over his first nine contests this season, but he erupted on offense in this win. He's up to four goals and 11 points through 10 outings overall. The Penguins prospect has been slowed by injuries this season, but he's shown plenty of potential in limited action.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Sunday starter
Skinner will start Sunday's contest against the Bruins, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
Skinner has been red-hot during his personal three-game winning streak, allowing just one goal in each start. The 27-year-old is 3-3-0 with a 2.56 GAA and an .893 save percentage in his Penguins tenure. He will attempt to stay hot against the Bruins, who are on the second of a back-to-back but fresh off of potting 10 goals against the Rangers.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Won't play Sunday
Rust (lower body) won't be in the lineup against Boston on Sunday, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff.
Rust remains day-to-day and will miss his second straight game. It's unclear if he will be ready for Tuesday's matchup against Tampa Bay. Rust has compiled 16 goals, 36 points, 104 shots on net and 44 blocked shots across 40 appearances this season. Kevin Hayes will remain in the lineup against the Bruins on Sunday because of Rust's absence.

Penguins' Yegor Chinakhov: Tallies lone goal in loss
Chinakhov scored a goal in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Flames.
Chinakhov has earned two goals and one assist over five games since joining the Penguins. He's still on the second line, but he saw just 10:09 of ice time Saturday, his lowest total since he was dealt to Pittsburgh from Columbus. The winger has nine points, 44 shots on net, 33 hits and a minus-5 rating across 34 appearances this season.

Penguins' Arturs Silovs: Falls to Flames on Saturday
Silovs stopped 23 shots in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Calgary.
The 24-year-old netminder had little chance on either goal. The first came on a Connor Zary breakaway early in the first period, while the winner by Matthew Coronato was fired through a screen 42 seconds into the third. It was Silovs' first loss since Dec. 18, snapping a four-start win streak, but it was also the first time he allowed fewer than three goals since Nov. 14 against the Predators. On the season, Silovs is 8-6-6 over 20 outings with a 3.18 GAA and .886 save percentage, and while he's splitting the Pittsburgh crease with Stuart Skinner right now, that could soon change -- Skinner has given up just three goals on 69 shots over his last three starts.
