Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry will be sidelined a minimum of three weeks due to an undisclosed injury.
The team announced the status of Jarry as well as injured forwards Noel Acciari (minimum three weeks) and Justin Brazeau (minimum four weeks) via a social media posting Wednesday morning.
All three players were placed on injured reserve Tuesday due to unspecified ailments.
Jarry has been the team’s winningest goaltender this season. Appearing in seven games, he has a 5-2-0 record, a 2.60 goals-against average, a .911 save percentage and one shutout.
Acciari, primarily deployed on the right wing of the fourth line as well as the penalty kill, has played in 13 games and recorded three assists while logging an average of 12:56 of ice time per contest.
Brazeau has missed the previous two games due to his ailment. Largely working on the right wing of the second line as well as the second power-play unit, Brazeau has emerged as the team’s third-leading scorer with 12 points (six goals, six assists) in 12 games.
That trio joins a group of incumbent teammates already on injured reserve, including forwards Kevin Hayes (suspected left shoulder) and Rickard Rakell (left hand) as well as defenseman Caleb Jones (suspected left foot).
Three rookies — goaltender Joel Blomqvist (undisclosed), Rutger McGroarty (undisclosed) and Jack St. Ivany (suspected right foot) — are on the injured non-roster list as a result of injuries suffered before the regular season opened.
