Pittsburgh Penguins forwards Justin Brazeau, Noel Acciari, and goaltender Tristan Jarry will all be out long-term due to injuries, the team announced on Wednesday.
Jarry will miss a minimum of three weeks while dealing with an lower-body injury. He last appeared during the Penguins 4-3 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday, allowing four goals on 20 shots.
The 6-foot-4 netminder was in the beginnings of a rebound year after going 16-12-6 last season with a 3.12 goals-against average and an .893 save percentage that led to a stint in the AHL.
Jarry has a 5-2 0 record with a 2.60 GAA and .911 save percentage to begin this season.
Brazeau will be out a minimum of four weeks while dealing with an upper-body injury. He last appeared during the team’s 4-1 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Thursday where he had 14:01 of ice time, recording a shot with a minus-1 rating.
The 6-foot-6 winger joined the Penguins on a two-year, $3 million contract in the off-season and began the season with six goals and 12 points in 12 games while playing on the team’s second line with Evgeni Malkin.
Acciari only skated 1:10 during the Penguins’ loss to Toronto on Monday before leaving with an upper-body injury and is expected to miss three weeks of action.
The 5-foot-11 centre has three assists in 13 games this season with a plus-3 rating.
