Barzal (rest) will be a healthy scratch against the Penguins on Wednesday, per Andrew Gross of Newsday.
After scoring 23 goals and 80 points in 80 contests this season, Barzal will get a breather ahead of the playoffs. Oliver Wahlstrom, who was last in the lineup Feb. 24, is projected to serve on the top line versus Pittsburgh due to Barzal's absence.
