Penguins' Bryan Rust: Scores in return from suspension
Rust scored a goal in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Islanders.
Rust sat out the last three games to serve a suspension for his illegal check to the head on the Canucks' Brock Boeser on Jan. 25. The 33-year-old Rust immediately resumed his usual top-line role and netted a second-period goal to put the Penguins ahead 3-2. He had a tough January with five points over 11 outings, but he's up to 19 goals, 40 points, 126 shots on net, 52 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 48 appearances this season.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Suspension served
Rust is eligible to return from his three-game suspension in Tuesday's clash with the Islanders.
Rust was going through a bit of a slow point offensively before getting suspended, generating just three points in his last seven outings. With the veteran winger back in the lineup, he is a virtual lock to reclaim a spot on the first line with Sidney Crosby and could also link up with the No. 1 power-play unit.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Handed three-game ban
Rust has been suspended for three games by the Department of Player Safety on Tuesday for an illegal check to the head on Brock Boeser.
Rust's absence will be a significant blow to a Penguins squad that is riding a four-game winning streak. During that stretch, the 33-year-old winger has recorded one goal, one assist and nine shots while playing on the top line with Sidney Crosby. There are several candidates who could fill that role for Pittsburgh, including Ben Kindel, who previously saw first-line minutes when Rickard Rakell was hurt.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Set for hearing with league
Rust will have a hearing with the Department of Player Safety, the NHL announced Monday.
At this point, Rust should be expected to miss at least one game while suspended by DoPS. Assuming the winger is out against the Blackhawks on Thursday, Kevin Hayes will likely come back into the lineup, but Rust's impending suspension will likely scramble up the Penguins' lines.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Tallies in win Wednesday
Rust scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Flames.
This was Rust's second goal in the last four games. The 33-year-old winger is a little lacking in consistency this month, earning four points over nine appearances in January so far. He's still putting together a solid season with 18 goals, 38 points, 121 shots on net, 50 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 45 outings overall. Rust is a fixture on the top line and first power-play unit for the Penguins, making him a safe choice in fantasy.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Buries power-play goal
Rust scored a power-play goal on two shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
Rust had gone three games without a point and also missed two contests due to a lower-body injury in that scoreless span. The veteran winger is up to 17 goals, 37 points, 112 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 42 appearances. He's earned 17 points on the power play, one shy of his total last year and four off his career-best mark in the category from 2021-22.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Returning versus Bolts
Rust (lower body) will be in the lineup against Tampa Bay on Tuesday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
With his lower-body injury behind him, Rust figures to return to a first-line role alongside Sidney Crosby in addition to linking back up with the No. 1 power-play unit. Since the start of December, the 33-year-old Rust has tallied nine goals and nine helpers, including eight power-play points, over 18 games. Given his offensive upside and a spot playing with Crosby, Rust figures to offer top-end fantasy value the rest of the way.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Six-game, eight-point streak
Rust had a goal and an assist in a 4-1 win over the Red Wings on Saturday.
Rust had five shots, the same number of shots he had in his previous three games. He's on a six-game, eight-point scoring streak that includes three goals and five assists. He also has two power-play assists in that span. Rust has 16 goals, 20 assists, 16 power-play points and 98 shots on net in 38 games. He is on pace to deliver new career highs offensively. That is, if Rust can stay healthy. He played 81 games in 2022-23 and 60 in the COVID-shortened 2020-21 campaign, but has seen time on the IR in every other year. Rust had 65 points (31 goals, 34 assists) in 71 games during the 2024-25 regular season.

He has posted multiple shots on goal in five straight outings, and with Rust averaging 4.4 shots per game in that stretch, it's not surprising to see him score four times. Rust has 12 goals and 28 points in 30 games this season, and he's cementing his place as one of the Penguins' most reliable forces on offense.

As long as he can stay healthy, he should remain productive in a prominent role for the Penguins.
