  • Rakell scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Predators. The top line of Rakell, Sidney Crosby and Bryan Rust accounted for four goals and 10 points in a stellar performance. This was Rakell's fourth multi-point effort in his last six games, a span in which he has recorded five goals and five assists. The 31-year-old is up to 15 goals -- matching his total from last year -- with 11 assists, 81 shots on net, 62 hits, 35 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 34 appearances this year. Rakell's career highs are 28 goals and 60 points in 2022-23, which is the only year he's played all 82 games. He could best both of those marks if he stays hot on Pittsburgh's top line.

  • Rakell scored a goal and added an assist in a 3-2 overtime win over the Kings. He tipped a shot from Erik Karlsson just under the crossbar at 1:44 of OT to seal the win. It was Rakell's team-leading 14th goal. He has 12 points, including seven goals, over his last 10 games. Rakell has shaken off last season's malaise, and he's helping make us all forget about that performance.

  • Rakell had a power-play goal, an even-strength tally, four shots on net and two assists in Thursday's 9-2 win over Montreal. Rakell's first-period power-play tally was his third man-advantage goal of the season and second in the last three games. He was part of a big night for the Penguins' top line, which accounted for five goals and 11 points. In addition to Rakell's two tallies, Bryan Rust had three of his own. It was the second multi-goal effort of the season for Rakell, who has six tallies over his last 10 outings and leads the Penguins with 12 overall.

  • Rakell scored a power-play goal on three shots, added an assist, logged two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs. Rakell saw his four-game point streak snapped against the Rangers on Friday, but he bounced back quickly. This was his first multi-point effort since Nov. 5. The veteran winger is up to 11 goals, 18 points (four on the power play), 69 shots on net, 55 hits, 31 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 29 outings. He's leading the team in goals and should continue to function in a top-line role.

Rakell has added 62 shots on net, 47 hits, 24 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 26 appearances, which is decent all-around production considering the Penguins' overall struggles in 2024-25.
