Penguins' Ryan Shea: Returning versus Sabres
Shea (upper body) will be in the lineup against Buffalo on Thursday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
Shea will suit up for the first time since March 9 versus the Wild due to his upper-body injury. While head coach Mike Sullivan didn't specifically say who would be coming out of the lineup to make way for Shea, it seems likely that Ryan Graves will find himself relegated to the press box. For his part, Shea has notched two goals, three assists and 10 hits in 30 NHL games for the Pens while logging 16:55 of ice time.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Set to miss time
Shea has been deemed week-to-week with an upper-body injury, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff on Tuesday.
Shea received a season-high 24:18 of ice time in Sunday's 3-1 win over Minnesota, so it's unclear when he picked up the injury. As a result of his upcoming absence, Ryan Graves will draw back into the lineup Tuesday against the Golden Knights. The Penguins also recalled Sebastian Aho from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on an emergency basis Tuesday, so he could be in the mix for playing time as well while Shea is sidelined.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Re-ups with Pittsburgh
Shea signed a one-year, $900,000 contract extension with the Penguins on Friday.
Shea had a rough start to the campaign, but his play has really come around in recent weeks. He has three points over six contests since play resumed after the 4 Nations Face-Off, and he's moved up into a top-four role. Shea still doesn't have a lot of fantasy value, but he has secured his spot with the Penguins through the 2025-26 campaign.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: First career two-goal game
Shea found the back of the net on both of his shots and went plus-1 in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Rangers.
Shea scored his first goal of the season less than a minute into the final frame to the tie game. He added another marker less than three minutes later to give Pittsburgh a 3-2 lead. Shea's 20:37 of ice time was a season high, but that can mostly be attributed to Matt Grzelcyk leaving the game with an upper-body injury. This was Shea's first appearance since Jan. 27 -- he's often been a healthy scratch this season, but Sunday's performance may have opened the door for more opportunities for the 28-year-old. Shea will be an unrestricted free agent come July, so he should have a lot to prove during the final stretch of the campaign.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Makes rare appearance Saturday
Shea had two shots on goal over 15:42 of ice time in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Kraken.
Shea had been scratched for the first 11 games of January, but he checked in for Pierre-Olivier Joseph in this contest. It wasn't a performance that would turn heads, so Shea may be back to the press box shortly. The 27-year-old has managed two assists, a minus-6 rating, 10 shots on net and 27 blocked shots through 21 outings this season. Shea, Joseph and Ryan Graves are in the mix for third-pairing minutes.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Picks up power-play helper
Shea posted a power-play assist in Monday's 7-3 win over the Flyers.
Shea ended a seven-game point drought with his helper on a Blake Lizotte tally late in the contest. Don't expect Shea to be a factor with the man advantage moving forward, as Kris Letang, Erik Karlsson and Matt Grzelcyk have firm grips on power-play time. For the season, Shea has struggled with offense in generally, collecting two assists and seven shots on net as well as 24 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 17 appearances.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Finds first point of season
Shea notched an assist and four blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Canucks.
Shea set up a Blake Lizotte tally in the first period. The 27-year-old Shea has played in six of the Penguins' last seven games, though he remains in competition with Jack St. Ivany, Ryan Graves and Owen Pickering (illness) for playing time. Shea has added four shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over nine outings this season.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Losing playing-time battle
Shea was scratched for Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Ducks, the 10th time in 12 games he's sat out.
Shea remains in the NHL as a seventh defenseman, but he's behind Jack St. Ivany on the depth chart for a third-pairing job. In his two appearances, Shea has a minus-2 rating, two shots on goal and five blocked shots. The Penguins' defense hasn't exactly been a standout group so far, but Shea has minimal upside on offense -- he produced just one goal and no assists over 31 regular-season outings in 2023-24.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Snags two-way contract
Shea agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with Pittsburgh on Monday.
Shea logged 31 regular-season games for the Penguins last season, recording one goal, 17 shots on net and 24 hits while averaging 12:37 of ice time. With the club also signing Matt Grzelcyk in free agency, the 27-year-old Shea will be hard-pressed to make the Opening Night roster -- though he could challenge John Ludvig (wrist) or Jack St. Ivany for a spot.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Limited offensively
Shea played in 31 games as a rookie this season but managed just one point to go with 24 hits, 24 blocks and 17 shots.
Shea started all nine April games during the Penguins' last-gasp push for a postseason spot, seemingly earning the trust of the coaching staff. If the team would like to keep Shea in a third-pairing role for next season, the Pens will need to sign him to an extension prior to July 1 or risk him agreeing to terms with a different team.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: On waivers
Shea was put on waivers Thursday, per CapFriendly.
Shea had a goal, 24 hits and 24 blocks in 31 contests with Pittsburgh in 2023-24. Assuming he clears waivers, Shea can be sent to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton for the squad's playoff run. The 27-year-old has provided two goals and six points in 22 outings with the minor-league club this campaign. The blueliner can become an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Shea (not injury related) will be in Monday's lineup against the Maple Leafs.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Dealing with immigration issue
Shea is stuck in Buffalo due to an immigration problem but is expected to arrive in Toronto in time for Monday's matchup, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Shea has played in four straight games for the Penguins in which he recorded one goal on two shots, three hits and three blocked shots while averaging 14:17 of ice time per contest. If Shea isn't able to get to the arena in time, it would likely mean a return to the lineup for John Ludvig, who hasn't played since March 30 versus the Blue Jackets due to an illness.

Penguins' Ryan Shea: Elevated from minors
Shea was called up from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
Shea's promotion comes as Ryan Graves was diagnosed with a concussion and is likely to miss some time. Even with the call-up, the 27-year-old Shea is far from a lock to get into the lineup against Columbus on Saturday, as John Ludvig will also be looking to play. For his part, Shea has garnered 13 shots, 16 hits and 14 blocks in 22 NHL games but continues to look for his first NHL point.
