Penguins' Ben Kindel: Hospitalized following medical event
Kindel suffered a medical episode during the Penguins' flight back to Pittsburgh, which resulted in the forward being hospitalized Tuesday.
According to the team, Kindel is alert and stable at the University of Utah Hospital, where he is undergoing further medical evaluation. The team should provide an update when there is more information on Kindel's status.

Penguins' Spencer Stastney: Gets first point of season
Stastney notched an assist in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Stastney was scratched for the Oilers' first four games of the season before getting dealt to the Penguins. He's now in a top-four role with his new team, though the 26-year-old has middling scoring potential even while playing in a prominent spot in the lineup. Stastney produced 10 points over 66 regular-season outings between Edmonton and Nashville in 2025-26.

Penguins' Andrei Kuzmenko: Secures first assist of season
Kuzmenko notched an assist in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Kuzmenko's helper was his first point in six outings this season. The winger has added six shots on net, five hits and a minus-3 rating while filling a middle-six role. While he's on the second power-play unit, he would need a better spot at even strength to generate much fantasy interest.

Penguins' Declan Carlile: Pots goal in loss
Carlile scored a goal on two shots and went minus-2 in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Carlile snapped a six-game skid with the tally. He had opened the season on a three-game point streak. Carlile is seeing top-four minutes at even strength, but he's unlikely to be the Penguins' leader on offense from the blue line. He has three goals, two assists, 15 shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 11 PIM, eight hits and a minus-4 rating through 10 appearances this season.

Penguins' Egor Chinakhov: Scores in return
Chinakhov scored a goal in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Chinakhov missed the previous two games, and he had gone five contests without a point prior to his lower-body injury. He returned to the lineup and got into a top-line role, and the goal is a good sign he's feeling better. The 25-year-old winger has added 14 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over eight appearances this season. He broke out in 2025-26 with 42 points across 72 regular-season outings between Pittsburgh and Columbus, so he has some work to do to get back to that kind of scoring pace.

Penguins' Arturs Silovs: Beaten five times Monday
Silovs stopped 24 of 29 shots in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Silovs -- and the entire Penguins defense -- struggled to contain Utah's offense as Pittsburgh suffered a fourth consecutive loss while allowing at least five goals each time. The 25-year-old netminder has faced significant pressure behind a team that has delivered subpar defensive play, and it's hard to rely on him in most formats even though he's in no danger of losing the No. 1 role to Sergei Murashov. In six starts this season, Silovs has gone 3-3-0 with a 3.51 GAA and a disappointing .866 save percentage.

Penguins' Erik Karlsson: Records two power-play points
Karlsson scored a power-play goal on one shot and added a power-play assist in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Karlsson opened the scoring just 1:11 into the contest, registering his first goal of the season while extending his strong playmaking start. The veteran defenseman has already accumulated 10 assists through 10 games, and his 27:40 of ice time Monday reinforced his substantial role on Pittsburgh's blue line. Although his shot volume was limited, his offensive responsibilities and power-play involvement provide a high fantasy ceiling among defensemen. He has 11 points in his first 10 outings this season.

Penguins' Rickard Rakell: Two-point effort in loss to Utah
Rakell scored a power-play goal on three shots and added an even-strength assist in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Rakell not only opened his goal-scoring account for the season, but he also snapped a seven-game pointless drought with his first multi-point effort of the campaign. His involvement in both a power-play goal and a late scoring play is encouraging, but he'll need more consistent production to overcome his slow start, especially now that he's playing as a middle-six forward instead of a top-six role.

Penguins' Bryan Rust: Sustains injury in Salt Lake City
Rust (lower body) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game in Utah.
Rust was seemingly injured in the middle frame, as the veteran winger wasn't on the bench to start the third period. The Michigan native logged two power-play assists, one block, one hit and a minus-2 rating in 9:32 of ice time prior to exiting the game. An update on Rust's status might not be available until the Penguins return home. Pittsburgh will host Florida on Thursday.

Penguins' Egor Chinakhov: Set to play on top line
Chinakhov (lower body) is good to go for Monday's road matchup against the Mammoth.
Chinakhov missed back-to-back games due to his lower-body injury but made solid progress in his recovery after it was relayed Friday that the forward had no clear timeline for a return to game action. The 25-year-old is poised for top-line duties Monday next to Sidney Crosby and Bryan Rust, which makes Chinakhov an attractive option going forward if he sticks in that role.

Penguins' Samuel Girard: Slated to miss Monday's game
Girard (undisclosed) is not expected to play Monday in Utah.
Girard skated on the second pairing during Monday's morning skate, which signals that he shouldn't be out of the lineup for too much longer. The left-shot blueliner was unable to finish Saturday's game in Vegas due to his undisclosed injury. Ilya Solovyov is set to make his season debut Monday because of Girard being sidelined.

Penguins' Egor Chinakhov: Considered game-time decision
Chinakhov (lower body) is considered a game-time decision for Monday's matchup against Utah, Josh Getzoff of SportsNet Pittsburgh reports.
Chinakhov has missed the last two games due to a lower-body injury, and while he initially didn't have a timetable to return, he at least appears to be in the mix to suit up Monday. If he's forced to miss a third consecutive game, Ville Koivunen is a candidate to remain in the lineup. Chinakhov has recorded a goal, an assist, four PIM, three hits and three blocked shots while averaging 15:57 of ice time across his first seven appearances of the regular season.

Penguins' Samuel Girard: Game-time call versus Utah
Girard (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Monday's matchup with the Mammoth, Josh Getzoff of SportsNet Pittsburgh reports.
Girard skated in his usual defensive pairing with Kaedan Korczak during the game-day skate, which is a strong indicator that Girard will be back in action Monday. If for some reason Girard can't give it a go, Ilya Solovyov figures to step into the lineup in his stead.

Penguins' Arturs Silovs: Exits ice first Monday
Silovs was the first goalie to leave the ice Monday, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports, indicating he'll be in goal on the road versus the Mammoth.
Silovs will look to bounce back from a disappointing loss to the Avalanche on Friday in which he gave up five goals on 32 shots (.844 save percentage). So far, the Penguins have been splitting the starts between the 25-year-old backstop and rookie Sergei Murashov, a trend that could continue when the Penguins face the Panthers on Thursday.

Penguins' Ilya Solovyov: Recalled by Pittsburgh
Solovyov was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Sunday.
Solovyov began the regular season on Pittsburgh's roster, but he didn't appear in any games before being waived and subsequently sent down. He'll provide additional depth for the Penguins after Samuel Girard sustained an undisclosed injury against the Golden Knights on Saturday.

Penguins' Ryan Johnson: Heads to minors
Johnson was sent to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Sunday.
Johnson was acquired by Pittsburgh from Buffalo on Monday in exchange for Caleb Jones and Daniel Laatsch. The 25-year-old Johnson has been a healthy scratch in three straight games since the trade, so a move to the minors will give him an opportunity to get some ice time.

Penguins' Thomas Novak: Deals two helpers in loss
Novak supplied two assists, including one on the power play, in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Novak snapped a four-game point drought with this performance. The 29-year-old center continues to feature on the Penguins' second line, a spot that should lead to more productive stretches. He has three goals, four assists, 15 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over nine appearances this season. He's earned three of his helpers on the power play.

Penguins' Evgeni Malkin: Bags another goal
Malkin scored a goal on two shots and went minus-2 in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Malkin has scored in consecutive contests, accounting for half of the Penguins' goals in that span. The 40-year-old forward is up to five goals, two assists, 20 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through nine appearances this season. Malkin's spot on the Penguins' second line is safe, and he's showing he can still be productive in his 21st campaign.
