The Pittsburgh Penguins are scheduled to start goaltender Tristan Jarry for Tuesday’s game against the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden, coach Mike Sullivan said.
Jarry has been sidelined the past two games since suffering an undisclosed injury during a 2-1 home win against the New York Islanders on March 29.
In 25 games this season, Jarry has a 15-8-2 record along with a 2.79 goals-against average as well as a .910 save percentage.
Notes:
• Injured Penguins forward Teddy Blueger will not play. He has missed the previous 10 games because of an undisclosed injury. Sullivan labeled Blueger as “continuing to make progress” in his recuperation.
In 28 games this season, Blueger has 15 points (four goals, 11 assists).
• The Penguins recalled forwards Frederick Gaudreau, Drew O’Connor and Radim Zohorna from their taxi squad. Forward Brandon Tanev was placed on injured reserve, and forward Josh Currie was recalled from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the American Hockey League and assigned to the taxi squad.
• Rookie forward Anthony Angello remains on the taxi squad. In 19 games this season, Angello has four points (two goals, two assists).
• The Rangers are expected to start goaltender Igor Shesterkin. In 20 games this season, he has a 9-8-2 record, a 2.27 goals-against average and a .925 save percentage.
