Karlsson Progressing, Hopes to Return Soon | Pittsburgh Penguins

Still sidelined versus Flames
Karlsson (lower body) will not be in action versus Calgary on Wednesday but did practice in a regular jersey, Josh Yohe of The Athletic reports.
Impact
Karlsson will be out of action for his fifth straight contest due to his lower-body injury. Still, it seems the blueliner is making progress and could be back sooner rather than later. Since the Christmas break, Karlsson has been producing offensively with one goal and six assists, including three power-play points, in eight outings.

Lands on injured reserve
Karlsson was placed on injured reserve Tuesday with an undisclosed injury.
Impact
Karlsson logged 23:12 of ice time in Sunday's clash with the Bruins, so it's not immediately clear when he suffered this undisclosed injury. With his placement on IR, the Swedish blueliner will be out of action for at least the next three games, though it could certainly be longer. In order to bolster the team's defensive options, Ryan Graves was called up from the minors in a corresponding move.

One of each in win
Karlsson scored a goal, tallied an assist and put two shots on net in Thursday's 4-1 win over New Jersey.
Impact
Karlsson tallied the opening goal for Pittsburgh just under seven minutes into the first period before picking up a secondary helper on Evgeni Malkin's power-play score. With the pair of points, Karlsson now has four goals, 29 assists, 92 shots on net and 40 blocks through 42 games this season. During the Penguins' six-game win streak, the 35-year-old blueliner has been a steady contributor to the offense with seven points, which include two multi-assist outings. The Pens' top defenseman ranks inside the top 10 in points among blueliners across the NHL and is tied for sixth in assists. While he likely won't reach the 100-point threshold again, Karlsson should continue to quarterback the team's top power-play unit, which should give him a solid chance at posting his best offensive season with Pittsburgh if he can surpass the 56 points he had during the 2023-24 season.

Secures 900th career point
Karlsson logged two assists and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Red Wings.
Impact
Karlsson's second helper of the game was the 900th point of his NHL career. The 35-year-old blueliner had 13 points over 14 outings in December and has started January on a high note as well. The veteran defenseman is up to 30 points, 86 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 39 appearances in a top-four role this season.

Records two assists
Karlsson had two assists, including one on the power play, in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Hurricanes.
Impact
Karlsson assisted Anthony Mantha's power-play goal in the first period and also set up Tommy Novak's strike in the second frame. The 35-year-old veteran is on pace to reach the 50-point plateau if he stays healthy, as he has 28 points (three goals, 25 assists) in 38 games this season.

Moves past illness
Karlsson (illness) is available for Tuesday's home game against the Hurricanes, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
Impact
Karlsson didn't practice Monday due to an illness, but he'll avoid missing his first game of the season Tuesday. The right-shot blueliner should assume his usual duties on the No. 1 pairing while seeing time with the man advantage against Carolina.

Dealing with illness
Karlsson will miss Monday's practice because of an illness.
Impact
Karlsson has three goals and 26 points in 37 outings this season. If he can't play Tuesday versus Carolina, then Connor Clifton might draw into the lineup. Karlsson's absence would also probably bump Kris Letang up to the top power-play unit.
