Penguins place Malkin on IR, recall Puljujarvi from AHL

The Pittsburgh Penguins placed star centre Evgeni Malkin on injured reserve on Monday.

Malkin was hurt during Saturday’s game against the Seattle Kraken when he collided with Chandler Stephenson and awkwardly bent his knee.

Although Malkin tried to stay in the game and took another shift, he left and did not return. He was ruled out for the remainder of the game due to a lower-body injury.

The 38-year-old veteran has nine goals and 34 points in 46 games this season.

He scored his 507th career goal last week, tying Jean Beliveau for 44th place on the NHL all-time list.

Pittsburgh also recalled forward Jesse Puljujarvi from the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the American Hockey League.
