Latest news and updates about the Penguins
Pregame Rickard Rakell is back, which provides a big boost to the forward lines. The Pens shake Tommy Novak, Anthony and Kevin Hayes all down a little bit, give Ben Kindel, Rutger McGroarty and the returning Rakell bigger roles than the past. Pretty good there. The newly acquired players from Edmonton are hung up with […]

The Edmonton Oilers finally made a goalie change by bringing in Tristan Jarry from the Pittsburgh Penguins and trading Stuart Skinner. But this was the better of the two goalies who have served in the Oilers' net over the past three seasons. That means now that the band-aid has been torn off with Skinner, the worst of the goalies, Calvin Pickard, is next to go and something will happen, possibly sooner than later. Elliotte Friedman said, "The Oilers poked around Alex Lyon...It wasn't as seriou...

This isn’t the first time the Edmonton Oilers have given up on a 27-year-old goaltender. On Friday morning, the Oilers sent Stuart Skinner (along with Brett Kulak and a 2029 second-round pick) to the Pittsburgh Penguins for Tristan Jarry and Sam Poulin. In my eyes, this is a lateral move in terms of skill, with…

The Penguins have had a Tristan Jarry problem for a while now. The 30-year old is on the books through the 2027-28 season at a $5.375 million cap hit. Pittsburgh doesn’t have salary cap issues for the future, but Jarry’s involvement with the team has been through the ringer ever since he was waived and […]

The Edmonton Oilers had a very busy morning by making two trades to finally address goaltending. Regardless of how many seem to be feeling and overreacting to the Oilers acquiring Jarry from the Pittsburgh Penguins , they have also struck a deal with the Nashville Predators to acquire Spencer Stastney, a young defenseman. The Oilers traded Stuart Skinner, Brett Kulak, and a 2029 second-round pick to the Penguins for Jarry and Samuel Poulin, so they brought in a starter with a .909 career SV% a...

The Pittsburgh Penguins added two roster players in the big trade to bring in goalie Stuart Skinner and defenseman Brett Kulak in exchange for just one going on the door in goalie Tristan Jarry.

During the 2024-25 season, not too far from this point in the season, any team in the NHL could have had Tristan Jarry and his contract for free. Given up no assets. Traded nothing. Just taken him off the waiver wire. Nobody would bite. On Friday, the Edmonton Oilers not only took on Tristan Jarry’s […]

There’s a delay to allow people to get to the rink. Jacob Fowler’s NHL debut will wait another 30 minutes. First period Owen Beck puts enough pressure on Kris Letang at the end of a long shift for the veteran defenceman to create a turnover. Alexandre Texier collects the puck and fires it off the far-side elbow of the net and in to open the scoring. Beck won’t get a point on the play, but it doesn’t happen without him. Sidney Crosby tries to tip the puck in in f...
