Rickard Rakell Absent On Monday
According to Josh Yohe of The Athletic, Pittsburgh Penguins left wing Rickard Rakell (personal) did not travel with the team to the West Coast due to a family issue. He was not in the lineup on Monday evening during their victory over the Kings and could be in danger of missing other games during the road trip. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Thursday's contest against the Anaheim Ducks. Rakell has enjoyed a fantastic start to the season, scoring 23 goals and tallied 17 helpers through 48 contests. He has also added 73 hits and 53 blocks. On Monday, Matt Nieto returned to the starting lineup, and Anthony Beauvillier moved up to the top line alongside Sidney Crosby and Bryan Rust. Beauvillier has deep-league streaming appeal while Rakell is absent.
