Shea will get the night off as Jack St. Ivany draws back into the lineup. Shea has played two games and is yet to register a point this season.

Tristan Jarry will be a healthy scratch for the second straight game as Alex Nedeljkovic will be the starting netminder and backed up by Joel Blomqvist on Tuesday against the Calgary Flames. The 29-year-old Jarry lost the trust of the Penguins coaching staff late in the 2023-24 season and is trending in that same direction this season. In three games (1-1-0), Jarry has an ugly 5.47 GAA and .836 SV%.

Max Jones will draw back into the Bruins' lineup on Tuesday, resulting in Brazeau being a healthy scratch. The 26-year-old Brazeau has averaged 11:44 time-on-ice through five games this season, tallying one point (0G / 1A) and a -3 plus/minus rating.

Blomqvist entered the season as the Penguins' third string goalie but has worked his way into the mix due to a preseason injury to Alex Nedeljkovic. In a surprising turn of events, Blomqvist has been the Penguins best goalie this season, outperforming a struggling Tristan Jarry, and will start for the third time in their first six games. The 22-year-old Blomqvist has a 2.86 GAA and .913 SV% in three appearances this season (2-1-0). The Penguins enter action on Thursday as +146 home underdogs against the Carolina Hurricanes.

Justin Brazeau and Morgan Geekie will serve as healthy scratches on Wednesday, allowing Max Jones and Riley Tufte to draw back into the Bruins' lineup. The 26-year-old Brazeau has one point (0G / 1A), a -3 plus/minus, and two shots on goal through four games this season.

Jarry has struggled to start the 2024-25 campaign but salvaged his first victory in his most recent outing, saving 24 of 27 shots (.889 SV%) in a 6-3 win over the Montreal Canadiens. The 29-year-old Jarry has an ugly 4.50 GAA and .866 SV% through two games this season (1-1-0). The Penguins enter action on Wednesday as -124 home favorites against a Buffalo Sabres club that defeated the Florida Panthers 5-2 in their last game, scoring more than one goal for the first time in four tries this season (1-3-0).
