Connor Clifton - Rare goal in shootout loss Clifton scored a goal and added five hits in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact Clifton has played in four straight games after getting scratched for 11 of the previous 12 contests. For now, it looks like he has a third-pairing job locked down while Erik Karlsson (lower body) is out. The goal was Clifton's first point in 19 appearances, and he's added 15 shots on net, 80 hits, 31 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-4 rating.

The 32-year-old forward continues to play on the top line, and he's been fairly steady with six points over nine outings in January. He's at seven goals, 19 points, 84 shots on net, 36 hits, 25 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 27 appearances.

Rutger McGroarty - Off IR, loaned to AHL affiliate McGroarty (concussion) was activated from injured reserve and assigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Sunday.

Impact McGroarty was a healthy scratch against Columbus on Jan. 4 before missing six straight games due to injury. Now that he is ready to play again, he will get some time in the minors. McGroarty has amassed four goals and seven points in five AHL outings this season. He also has two goals, one assist, 28 shots on net and 16 hits in 16 NHL appearances during the 2025-26 campaign.

Sidney Crosby - Two-point effort Saturday Crosby picked up a goal and an assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact The future Hall of Famer continues to fill up the scoresheet in January. Crosby has six multi-point performances through the first nine games this month, collecting five goals and 13 points over that stretch, and his 53 points (26 goals, 27 assists) in 47 contests on the season puts him just outside the top 10 in the NHL.

Arturs Silovs - Downed by Jackets in shootout Silovs turned aside 22 shots in regulation and overtime and two of four shootout attempts in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Columbus.

Impact The 24-year-old netminder shut the Blue Jackets down over the third period and OT to secure a point for the Penguins, but Kent Johnson and Charlie Coyle were able to solve him in the shootout. Silovs has just one regulation loss in his last seven starts while working in a timeshare with Stuart Skinner, going 4-1-2 with a 2.64 GAA and .896 save percentage.

Rafael Harvey-Pinard - Collects three points in AHL win Harvey-Pinard scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton's 4-1 win over Hartford on Saturday.

Impact Harvey-Pinard didn't get into a game during his call-up with the Penguins last week, but it was a reward for his strong play in the AHL. He's at nine goals and eight assists over 35 outings this season, with four goals and three helpers coming over his last eight contests. The 27-year-old has 84 games of NHL experience, so it's possible the Penguins will give him additional looks later in the campaign.

Evgeni Malkin - Puts up pair of helpers Malkin notched two assists, including one on the power play, in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

Impact Malkin is rolling again with two goals and three helpers over five games since he returned from an upper-body injury. The 39-year-old set up goals by Yegor Chinakhov and Sidney Crosby in this contest. Malkin is at 34 points (15 on the power play), 74 shots on net, 26 PIM and a plus-8 rating through 31 appearances as a steady part of the Penguins' second line. While he's historically been a center throughout his career, he's working on the wing currently, which gives him versatility in some fantasy formats.

Connor Dewar - Pots goal in win Dewar scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

Impact Every Penguin forward got on the board, including Dewar with a third-period insurance tally. The 26-year-old forward has been pretty good in a fourth-line role this season, earning five points over eight games in January. He's up to a total of nine goals, 17 points, 70 shots on net, 80 hits, 22 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 46 appearances. He's two points shy of matching his career high from 2023-24, split between Toronto and Minnesota.

Blake Lizotte - Goal, fight in win Lizotte scored a goal and added seven PIM in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

Impact Lizotte stretched the Penguins' lead to 4-1 in the second period, getting a piece of a Noel Acciari attempt on the way to the net. Through eight games in January, Lizotte has three goals and an assist. The 28-year-old forward signed a three-year extension with the Penguins on Monday, so he looks to be part of the team's long-term plans in the bottom six. He's at six goals, five assists, 38 shots on net, 33 hits, 19 blocked shots, 17 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 37 appearances.
