Walman (undisclosed) will remain out on Thursday on Long Island but is hopeful to return for the weekend.

Walman signed a seven-year contract worth $7 million AAV at the beginning of October but has not played a game yet in the 2025-26 season. He is hopeful to debut on Saturday against the New Jersey Devils. The 29-year-old Walman had a goal, eight points and a +5 plus/minus in 15 games with the Oilers last season after being acquired at the Trade Deadline from San Jose.

Jarry will start in Anaheim on Tuesday.

The Penguins will hand Jarry the reigns between the pipes for the second time this season when they travel to Anaheim on Tuesday. Jarry was sharp in his season debut, stopping 34 of the 37 shots he faced in a 4-3 victory over the Islanders on Thursday. He's a decent bet to stay undefeated tonight as the Penguins enter action as slight underdogs at +120 on the money line.

Jarry will start Pittsburgh's home opener vs. the Islanders on Thursday.

Despite an impressive 25-save shutout by Arturs Silovs in their 3-0 opening-night win over the New York Rangers, the Penguins will opt to rotate netminders early, turning to Jarry on Thursday against the New York Islanders. After a horrendous start to the 2024-25 season, posting a 3.10 GAA and .884 SV% in 22 games (9-9-4), Jarry spent two months in the minors before returning to the NHL and ending the season on a higher note, posting a 2.60 GAA and .904 SV% in 14 games to end the season (8-4-2). The 30-year-old Jarry hopes to start this season the way he ended the previous one. The Penguins enter Thursday’s contest as +116 home underdogs against an Islanders team that finished last season with the league’s fifth-worst offense (2.73 GF / GP).
