Pittsburgh Penguins News

The Penguins have acquired Tommy Novak and Luke Schenn from the Predators for Michael Bunting and a 2026 4th Round Pick.

The Penguins will be hoping the 27-year-old Novak will be able to regain the form he flashed in the 2022-23 season, when he scored 17 goals and added 26 assists in just 51 regular season games. Novak leaves Nashville after amassing 117 points with the franchise across 201 career games.

Jarry has been recalled from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL).

Jarry has been in the AHL the last month and a half but Pittsburgh is desperate for a spark in their crease after allowing four or more goals in five of their last six games (1-3-2). The 29-year-old Jarry was serviceable during his AHL stint, posting a 2.67 GAA and .908 SV% in 12 games (6-5-1). In a corresponding move, Pittsburgh has reassigned Joel Blomqvist to the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins (AHL).

Silovs will start in Anaheim on Thursday.

Fresh off a 3-2 overtime win over the Los Angeles Kings last night, the Canucks will turn to Silovs between the pipes in the tail end of their back-to-back against the Anaheim Ducks. Silovs has seen limited NHL action this season but was solid in his most recent outing, saving 30 of 32 shots (.938 SV%) in a 2-1 win over the Utah Hockey Club earlier this week. He has a 3.82 GAA and .862 SV% in eight appearances this season (1-5-1). The Canucks enter the action on Thursday as -121 road favorites against a Ducks squad amid a two-game losing skid.

Imama (upper-body) has been activated from IR and will play against the Flyers on Thursday.

Imama had been on the IR since February 7th due to an upper-body injury but is healthy and has been activated on Thursday ahead of Pittsburgh's game vs. Philadelphia. The 28-year-old left-winger had failed to pick up a point in any of his six appearances so far this season and will likely return to his bottom-six role as a depth forward for the Penguins upon his return.
