The Penguins will receive a major boost when they face the Avalanche in an East vs. West showdown on Monday night.
Pittsburgh center Evgeni Malkin is eligible to suit up after serving a five-game suspension for slashing Buffalo defenseman Rasmus Dahlin. There is also a chance that Sidney Crosby, who suffered a lower-body injury during the 2026 Winter Olympics, returns to the ice before the end of the Penguins' road trip.
The additions of Malkin and Crosby would certainly help against an Avalanche squad that leads the NHL with 97 points.
