Rust (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Rust continues to be classified as day-to-day by head coach Mike Sullivan, and was placed on retroactive IR, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff, which means he could still be an option for Opening Night. While the Michigan native is on the shelf, look for Anthony Beauvillier to take on a first-line role on the right side of Sidney Crosby while Rickard Rakell slides up to the No. 1 power-play unit.
