Silovs will start in Philadelphia on Tuesday.

On the tail end of a back-to-back, a night after a 6-3 win over the St. Louis Blues, the Penguins will turn to Silovs between the pipes on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Flyers. The Penguins have received solid performances from both of their netminders, which has led them to an impressive 7-2-1 start to the season. The 24-year-old Silovs has a 2.56 GAA and .914 SV% in five games this season (3-1-1). The Penguins enter Tuesday's contest as +149 road underdogs against a Flyers team with a 4-3-1 record.

Silovs will start vs. Vancouver on Tuesday.

The Penguins are off to a surprising 4-2-0 start to the 2025-26 season, riding a two-game winning streak, due in part to strong tandem netminding from Arturs Silovs and Tristan Jarry. The 23-year-old Silovs will tend the twine on Tuesday against the Vancouver Canucks, looking to improve on his 2.67 GAA and .908 SV% through three games (2-1-0). The Penguins enter Tuesday's matchup as slight -109 home favorites against a Canucks team riding a three-game winning streak.

Silovs will start in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The Penguins are off to a 2-2-0 start to the 2025-26 season and will continue to alternate their goalies, turning to Silovs on Thursday against the Los Angeles Kings. Silovs has shown a mixed bag in his two games as a Penguin. He opened the season with a spectacular 25-save shutout in a 3-0 win over the New York Rangers, but followed it up by allowing six goals on 30 shots (.800 SV%) against the same Rangers team four days later. The Penguins enter the action on Thursday as +172 road underdogs against a Kings team that has been outscored 16-12 through four games this season (1-2-1).

Silovs will start and make his Penguins' debut on Tuesday.

Silovs was acquired in a trade from the Vancouver Canucks in the offseason to battle with Tristan Jarry for the Penguins' crease and appears to have a head start on opening night as he will tend the twine against the New York Rangers. The 24-year-old Silovs has limited NHL experience, having played a career-high 10 games with Vancouver last season (2-6-1), posting a 3.65 GAA and a .861 SV%. Expect the Penguins to alternate starts between their goaltenders unless one can establish themselves as the undisputed starter. The Penguins enter Tuesday's contest against the Rangers as +194 road underdogs.

The Penguins acquired Arturs Silovs in a trade from the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for Chase Stillman and a 2027 fourth-round pick.

Silovs is a talented goalie who has battled inconsistencies and was buried on Vancouver's depth chart behind Thatcher Demko and Kevin Lankinen. He is coming off a terrific Calder Cup-winning postseason with the Abbotsford Canucks (AHL), posting a stellar 2.01 GAA and .931 SV% in 24 appearances (16-7). With the recent departure of Alex Nedeljkovic, Silovs could have an opportunity for a heavier workload at the NHL level this season.

Silovs will start in Anaheim on Thursday.

Fresh off a 3-2 overtime win over the Los Angeles Kings last night, the Canucks will turn to Silovs between the pipes in the tail end of their back-to-back against the Anaheim Ducks.

He has a 3.82 GAA and .862 SV% in eight appearances this season (1-5-1). The Canucks enter the action on Thursday as -121 road favorites against a Ducks squad amid a two-game losing skid.

With Thatcher Demko expected to be out week-to-week with a lower-body injury, Arturs Silovs has been recalled from Abbotsford (AHL) to act as Kevin Lankinen's backup for the foreseeable future. The 23-year-old netminder has appeared in seven games for Vancouver this season but has struggled with a 1-4-1 record, 4.11 GAA and .847 SV%.
