Bryan Rust Tallies 25th Goal In Loss On Wednesday
5 years agoPittsburgh Penguins forward Bryan Rust recorded his 25th goal of the campaign in his team's 2-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings at the Staples Center on Wednesday. The 27-year-old also finished the night with a plus-one rating, four shots on goal and one hit in 19:59 of time on ice in the contest. After failing to find the scoresheet in nine of ten games, Rust has now registered a point in two consecutive games - continuing to hover over a point-per-game (50 points in 48 games) in 2019-2020. Capitalizing on great chemistry with superstar center Evgeni Malkin, the Michigan native has been a near unanimous top-50 asset in fantasy leagues this season (also adding a plus-18 rating, 15 power-play points, 138 shots and 67 hits). He'll look to make it three straight contests with a point when he and the Pens take on the Ducks up next on Friday.
