The "new" Tristan Jarry in goal for the Pens looks a lot like the old Jarry that was sent to the minors in October; Jarry was routed in his return game vs. Columbus on Friday and now sports an unsightly 5.26 GAA this season. Not good. It goes without saying there's a big edge in goal tonight goes to the Lightning and Andrei Vasilevskiy, who has been posting his usual solid numbers (8-5-1, 2.15 GAA, .920 saves), and all indicators are that Jon Cooper goes again tonight with Vasilevskiy. Pittsburgh has taken several heavy losses, and Tampa Bay (and Vasilevskiy) off dominant home wins over the Jets and Devils, allowing just one goal, in front of this road trip. Play Lightning on Puck Line
Brayden Point is back from injury for Tampa Bay and No. 1 netminder Andrei Vasilevskiy is in net -- the future Hall of Famer has allowed only two goals in the past three games. The Pens are without top blueliner Kris Letang and starting the massively struggling Tristan Jarry in net. He's 1-2 with a 5.37 GAA and this might be Jarry's last chance to stay in the NHL or he goes back to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and has to wear a giant "FROM DWIGHT" jersey on his birthday while wearing Night Swept cologne.
