Rickard Rakell - Buries goal in loss Rakell scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Impact Rakell scored in the third period to cut the deficit to 3-2, but the Penguins couldn't tie it up. Head coach Mike Sullivan has shuffled wingers all around his top six, but Rakell looks set to stick alongside Evgeni Malkin on the second line. Rakell has a goal, four shots and four hits through three contests this season, and he is notoriously streaky on offense, which could give his fantasy managers some heartburn throughout 2024-25.

Kris Letang - Puts away power-play goal Letang scored a power-play goal on two shots, added two hits and went minus-2 in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Impact Letang has opened the season with a goal and an assist, both on the power play, over three games. The defenseman has added four shots on net, five hits, four PIM and a minus-3 rating. His struggles in his own zone have yet to cost him ice time -- Letang remains a top-four option, but at 37 years old, it's possible he's lost a step on the ice. Helping his scoring to begin 2024-25 is the Penguins' willingness to deploy both Letang and Erik Karlsson on the top power-play unit.

Joel Blomqvist - Sharp in loss Blomqvist made 29 saves in a 4-2 loss to the Maple Leafs on Saturday. He allowed three goals.
Impact It's hard to fault Blomqvist on any of the goals. He was left high-and-dry on a two-on-none break, and William Nylander ripped it past him high early in the second period. Matthew Knies then beat him from the crease about two minutes later, and Mitch Marner ripped one past him on a breakaway early in the third. Blomqvist is currently backing up Tristan Jarry while Alex Nedeljkovic (lower body) is on the shelf. With Jarry struggling, Blomqvist could get another couple starts until Ned returns.

Evgeni Malkin - Hits 1,300 career points Malkin put up two assists Saturday in a 4-2 loss to Toronto.
Impact The points gave him 1,300 in his career, tying him with Jarome Iginla for 36th on the all-time list. He did it in 1,148 games. Malkin still has plenty in the tank at age 38, and he will almost certainly move into the 20s on that list this season. Guy Lafleur sits 29th with 1,353 and Brendan Shanahan is 28th with 1,354.
