Impact Puustinen had 12 goals and 40 points in 59 AHL regular-season outings with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Colorado in 2025-26. The 27-year-old also has seven goals and 24 points in 66 career regular-season NHL appearances.

Joona Koppanen - Headed back to Europe Koppanen agreed to terms on a contract with Swedish club Lulea HF on Monday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
Impact Koppanen appeared in 13 regular-season games for the Penguins this season but failed to find the back of the net. The 28-year-old winger did manage one assist, seven shots and 11 hits while averaging 12:08 of ice time. At this point, the Finn will be hard-pressed to get another NHL opportunity, having logged a total of 33 regular-season games and producing just three points, and figures to play the rest of his days overseas.

Penguins re-sign star forward Evgeni Malkin to a 1-year deal

Evgeni Malkin is staying in Pittsburgh
MAY 26 • Associated Press
Evgeni Malkin - Signs one-year deal Malkin agreed to terms on a one-year, $5.5 million contract with Pittsburgh on Tuesday.
Impact Malkin will be back for another year after inking a fresh one-year contract ahead of free agency opening July 1. The veteran center returns following a bounce-back year in which he generated 19 goals and 42 assists in 56 regular-season tilts. His potential for a regression year, especially considering he'll be 40 before the start of the 2026-27 campaign, will make him a risky option in season-long formats.
