Notches helper Tuesday Puljujarvi recorded an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Islanders.

Impact Puljujarvi had been scratched in the previous two games, but he replaced Valtteri Puustinen in the lineup in a bottom-six role. Despite seeing a modest 9:49 of ice time, Puljujarvi was able to get on the scoresheet for the first time in his last five outings. The winger has six points, 13 shots on net, 16 hits and a minus-1 rating over 11 appearances, but he's likely to be a rotational depth forward for much of the campaign.

Contributes assist in loss Puljujarvi recorded an assist, two shots on goal and three hits in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Jets.

Impact Not many things have gone right for the Penguins, but Puljujarvi is an early success story. He has a goal, four assists, 10 shots on net and nine hits over six games, and his recent run of production earned him a top-six look at even strength in Sunday's game. The lines are likely to remain in a blender as the Penguins continue to struggle, but Puljujarvi has already surpassed his point total from 22 games last season (four) as he tries to jump-start his career at age 26.

The 26-year-old has three points, seven shots on net and five hits over four appearances this season. While he was a healthy scratch once, Puljujarvi's job security on the third line got a large boost when Rutger McGroarty was sent down to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton prior to Wednesday's game.

Impact Puljujarvi didn't sign with the Pens until February, so perhaps a full training camp will help set him up to produce more offensively next season. Having said that, the 25-year-old winger is unlikely to challenge for a top-six role, so his opportunities are likely to be limited.

Set to sign AHL PTO Puljujarvi is expected to sign an AHL professional tryout agreement this week, Taylor Haase of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

Impact Puljujarvi will be permitted to play in up to 25 AHL games while on a PTO with Wilkes-Barre Scranton. Formally, this will end his current NHL tryout deal, but the fact that he's stuck around the Penguins' organization this long suggests there is some mutual interest in eventually getting the winger signed to a two-way NHL contract.
