Tristan Jarry returned to the Penguins from injured reserve and Bryan Rust got out of his sickbed to score a key goal as the Penguins knocked off Buffalo last night. Paul Steigerwald has the story.
Coach Dan Muse says Jarry saved the day, especially when the Sabres grabbed the momentum in the second period.
Muse says the goal by Rust was key, coming after a Sabres game-tying score.
Jarry says it felt great being able to slide back into the lineup.
Jarry says the Penguins knew how important the game was.
With Jarry’s return, rookie Sergei Murashov was returned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. ESPN’s Kevin Weekes said yesterday that Jarry has become a trade target of several teams around the NHL, specifically mentioning the Edmonton Oilers.
Ville Koivunen returned from injured reserve along with Jarry. Rookie top draft pick Ben Kindel sat out as a healthy scratch as part of his team-managed development plan.
