Arturs Silovs to Start Friday Amidst Penguins' Goaltending Uncertainty

Arturs Silovs is slated to start in goal for the Pittsburgh Penguins' Global Series matchup against Nashville on Friday. The 24-year-old goalie, who signed a two-year, $1.7 million contract with the Canucks in July 2024 and was traded to the Penguins in July 2025, has been struggling recently, with a 1-1-3 record in his last five games and a .914 save percentage. With Tristan Jarry sidelined due to a lower-body injury, Silovs may see an increased workload. However, rookie Sergei Murashov is considered the team's goalie of the future and could potentially start on Sunday. Silovs' current season statistics include a 4-2 record with one shutout, a 2.50 goals-against average, and a .916 save percentage.
