Jarry struggled in his first three appearances of the season, posting a 5.47 GAA and .836 SV%. This week the Penguins carried Alex Nedeljkovic and Joel Blomqvist as their goalies on their road trip, while Jarry was in Pittsburgh. Rather than sitting and not playing, he'll get a chance to work on his game in the AHL on a conditioning assignment.

After rolling with Alex Nedeljkovic for two straight games (0-1-1), the Penguins will turn back to Blomqvist between the pipes on Friday evening against the Edmonton Oilers. The Penguins have had suspect goaltending all season, ranking worst in the league with 35 goals allowed in eight games (3-4-1), but have had a glimmer of stability with Blomqvist in the crease. The 22-year-old Blomqvist has a 3.16 GAA and .908 SV% in four outings this season (2-2-0). The Penguins enter action on Friday as +191 road underdogs against the Oilers.

Mason Lohrei will be a healthy scratch against the Dallas Stars on Thursday, allowing Wotherspoon to return to the lineup for the first time since October 10th. In his only game this season, Wotherspoon played 12:56 time-on-ice, recording one shot and one hit.

St. Ivany will re-enter the lineup after being a healthy scratch in Winnipeg on Sunday. Ryan Shea will sit in his absence.

Shea will get the night off as Jack St. Ivany draws back into the lineup. Shea has played two games and is yet to register a point this season.

Tristan Jarry will be a healthy scratch for the second straight game as Alex Nedeljkovic will be the starting netminder and backed up by Joel Blomqvist on Tuesday against the Calgary Flames. The 29-year-old Jarry lost the trust of the Penguins coaching staff late in the 2023-24 season and is trending in that same direction this season. In three games (1-1-0), Jarry has an ugly 5.47 GAA and .836 SV%.

Max Jones will draw back into the Bruins' lineup on Tuesday, resulting in Brazeau being a healthy scratch. The 26-year-old Brazeau has averaged 11:44 time-on-ice through five games this season, tallying one point (0G / 1A) and a -3 plus/minus rating.

Dumba exited the Stars' second game of the season after playing only 6:02 time-on-ice and missed the next four games, but will re-enter the lineup on Tuesday against the Buffalo Sabres. Brendan Smith will exit the lineup as a healthy scratch to welcome Dumba's return. The 30-year-old Dumba signed a two-year contract worth $7.5 million ($3.75 AAV) with the Stars in the offseason to be paired next to Miro Heiskanen on the Stars' top defensive pair.

The 22-year-old Blomqvist has a 2.86 GAA and .913 SV% in three appearances this season (2-1-0). The Penguins enter action on Thursday as +146 home underdogs against the Carolina Hurricanes.
