Rust recorded two assists in a 5-4 overtime loss to Detroit on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Rust's two helpers came on Pittsburgh power plays. He has nine goals and 23 points in 35 contests this season, including seven power-play points. He only averaged 0:16 of ice time with the man advantage in three games from Dec. 20-27, and the 30-year-old was limited to 0:37 vs. the Red Wings. Despite that, Rust has managed to record three power-play points over that four-game span.
