Pittsburgh Penguins News

Jarry will be looking to extend his two-game winning streak as he takes over the Penguins crease for a third straight game on Tuesday in Vancouver. The 28-year-old leads the NHL in shutouts (6) this season but still has a below .500 record with his 16-17-4 record, 2.56 GAA and .911 SV%. He will face the Canucks on the road Tuesday, who snapped a four-game losing streak with a massive 3-2 victory over Boston their last time out.

Mantha was a game-time decision on Monday due to the lower-body injury, but he appears to be good to go. While playing predominantly on a line with Aliaksei and Connor McMichael, Mantha has been productive lately, scoring five points (2G / 3A) in his last five games.

Brazeau impressed in his first two NHL games, scoring a goal and registering eight shots on goal, but he will be the odd-man out on Thursday. Jakub Lauko (upper-body) draws back into the lineup in Brazeau's place.

A fourth-round pick in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft, Bemstrom scored 31 goals and 38 assists in 204 games across parts of five seasons in Columbus, playing predominantly in the team's bottom-six. It's unclear where the Penguins plan to deploy the 24-year-old Swede in their lineup.

Jarry did not participate in the morning skate but will start between the pipes for the Penguins on Thursday evening. Despite an unspectacular 2-3-0 record, Jarry has allowed two or fewer goals in four of five posting a solid .920 SV%.
