Jason Zucker News
Zucker had a strong performance in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Seattle Kraken, tallying two points (1G / 1A), but has missed the last two games due to an illness.

He has 35 points (16G / 19A) in 46 games.

Injuries plagued him in his first two seasons with Pittsburgh, but he missed just four games last year, scoring 27 goals with 21 assists (48 points) in 78 games.
