Kris Letang - Expected to return Saturday Letang (illness) is expected to play Saturday against Los Angeles, Dave Molinari of Pittsburgh Hockey Now reports.

Impact Letang missed Friday's 6-3 victory over Anaheim because of the illness. He has five goals and 21 points in 33 games this season while averaging 24:42 of ice time. With Letang drawing back into the lineup, Mark Friedman might be a healthy scratch.

Casey DeSmith - Facing Ducks DeSmith will defend the road net against Anaheim on Friday, according to Penguins radio play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff.

Impact DeSmith has started the last four games, as No. 1 netminder Tristan Jarry has been out of action with an upper-body injury. DeSmith has been seeing a lot of rubber of late, facing at least 39 shots in four of his last five contests. He is 8-10-4 with a 3.23 GAA and .905 save percentage. DeSmith will take on the lowest scoring team in the NHL, as the Ducks are averaging 2.44 goals per contest.

Tristan Jarry - Practices Thursday Jarry (upper body) practiced on Thursday, Penguins radio play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.

Impact Jarry has been out of action since Jan. 22 with the injury, but is now well enough to accompany the Penguins on their three-game California road trip. While coach Mike Sullivan said that there no timeline to return, it's a good sign that Jarry was practicing with his teammates. Jarry is 16-5-5 with a 2.65 GAA and .921 save percentage this season.

FEBRUARY 8, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Bryan Rust - Forces overtime with goal Rust scored a goal to extend Tuesday's clash with Colorado into extra time.

Impact At his current pace, Rust could be in danger of missing the 20-goal threshold for the first time since 2018-19 when he found the back of the net just 18 times. Still, with two goals in his last three outings, the veteran winger could be finding his groove, something the Penguins will likely need in order to stave off the Islanders for a playoff spot.

FEBRUARY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Evgeni Malkin - Another multi-point effort Malkin garnered a pair of assists in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime victory over Colorado.

Impact Malkin has been boom or bust of late, recording either multiple or zero points in 11 straight contests. Over that stretch, the veteran center has racked up seven goals and 10 assists, including eight power-play points. The three-time Stanley Cup champion should continue to produce at a point-per-game pace the rest of the way.

FEBRUARY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jake Guentzel - Records 10 shots Guentzel failed to find the back of the net despite registering 10 shots against the Avalanche on Tuesday.

Impact Guentzel remains mired in a five-game goal drought and would need a fantastic end-run to the season to repeat the 40 goals he put up in 2021-22. Still, the Omaha native should still be capable of reaching the 30-goal threshold, making him a high-end fantasy option.
