Evgeni Malkin placed on injured reserve and the team has recalled Jesse Puljujarvi in a corresponding move. Malkin played just five shifts in Saturday’s 4-1 loss to the Kraken and exited the game with a knee injury. The Puljujarvi recall continues to see the Penguins valuing prominent playing time for their young forwards in the minors than the team being at the point where they are ready to bring up a deserving Top Prospect like Ville Koivunen or Rutger McGroarty for NHL time.
