Tomasino recorded a pair of power-play assists in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
This was Tomasino's first multi-point effort as a Penguin. The 23-year-old forward has earned seven points and 28 shots on net since he was dealt to Pittsburgh by Nashville. For the season, he has eight points, 45 shots, 21 hits and a minus-4 rating over 25 appearances while often filling a middle-six role, though his increase in power-play time with the Penguins has allowed him to be more productive.

Tomasino scored a power-play goal and added two hits in Monday's 7-3 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
A one-game absence due to an upper-body injury took Tomasino's offense off track earlier in December. He snapped a six-game point drought with his tally Monday, his fourth goal in 12 contests as a Penguin. The forward has six points, 42 shots on net, 19 hits and a minus-3 rating over 23 appearances between Pittsburgh and Nashville this season. Tomasino continues to fill a middle-six role.

Tomasino (upper body) will play against Colorado on Tuesday, according to Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
EDGE Analysis
Following a one-game absence, Tomasino will return to action. Since being acquired from Nashville, he has three goals and one assist in five games for Pittsburgh. Tomasino will replace Jesse Puljujarvi in Tuesday's lineup.

Tomasino (upper body) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's home matchup with the Avalanche, per Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
EDGE Analysis
Tomasino is in danger of missing back-to-back games, as he skated in a non-contact jersey Monday. The Ontario native has been a jolt to the Penguins lineup since being acquired in a trade from Nashville in November. The right-shot forward has potted three goals and added an assist over five appearances with his new club. Cody Glass will likely remain on the second line for Tuesday's contest.

Tomasino (upper body) took the ice in a non-contact sweater Monday, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tomasino was classified by head coach Mike Sullivan on Saturday as day-to-day but the fact that he hasn't been cleared for contact certainly makes him a doubt heading into Tuesday's game against Colorado. Prior to getting hurt, the 23-year-old center was riding a four-game point streak during which he racked up three goals, one assists and 15 shots while slotting into a second-line role alongside Evgeni Malkin. With Tomasino shelved, Cody Glass moved into the second-line spot and will likely continue to play there if Tomasino can't suit up Tuesday.

Tomasino (upper body) won't play Saturday versus Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Tomasino has been a productive addition for Pittsburgh since being acquired from Nashville on Nov. 25, registering three goals and one assist in five games. His four-game point streak will end because of Saturday's absence. With Tomasino unavailable, Jesse Puljujarvi or Matt Nieto could play versus the Maple Leafs.

Tomasino scored a goal, took three shots and recorded a hit in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Tomasino has three goals and one assist during his four-game point streak. Considering that he had notched just one assist in 12 games beforehand, there's no doubt Tomasino is riding his most productive stretch of the season. However, his numbers suggest he's nothing more than a streaming option in most formats right now, although his top-six role indicates he'll have more opportunities to produce in the coming contests.

Tomasino scored a power-play goal on four shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Tomasino cashed in during the second period, and after the Flames made a half-hearted comeback effort in the third, his goal stood as the game-winner. His first two goals as a Penguin have secured consecutive victories. Tomasino is making a good first impression on his second franchise, and that should help him carve out a top-six role. The forward has three points, 29 shots on net and 10 hits over 14 appearances between the Penguins and the Predators this season.

Tomasino scored a goal on six shots in Friday's 2-1 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Tomasino's tally at 7:26 of the third period ended up being the game-winner. The 23-year-old was traded to the Penguins from the Predators on Monday, and he's immediately hopped into a middle-six role after being a frequent scratch in Nashville this season. He's at two points, 24 shots on net, 10 hits and an even plus-minus rating across 13 appearances between the two teams.

Tomasino was traded to Pittsburgh from Nashville on Monday in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round pick.
EDGE Analysis
At just 23 years of age, Tomasino certainly fits the bill as part of general manager Kyle Dubas' goal of getting younger. The 23-year-old natural center has played in 11 games for the Predators this season in which he generated one assist, 10 hits and 17 shots on goal while averaging 11:18 of ice time. With his new club, Tomasino should be in the mix for a bottom-six role, though he is far from a lock for the lineup on a nightly basis and could be a healthy scratch periodically.
