Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Placed on IR
Pettersson (lower body) was designated for injured reserve Tuesday.
Considering Pettersson was deemed week-to-week by head coach Mike Sullivan on Monday, his placement on IR shouldn't come as a surprise. At this point, the 28-year-old defenseman shouldn't be expected back before the Christmas break, though it could certainly be longer. Owen Pickering should see an uptick in ice time with Pettersson out of the lineup while Nate Clurman was brought up from the minors to provide defensive depth.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Considered week-to-week
Pettersson (lower body) was labeled week-to-week by head coach Mike Sullivan on Monday, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.
Pettersson has been one of the Penguins' most reliable shutdown defensemen this season, so his absence could be a significant blow to a team that has been performing better of late. Offensively, the 28-year-old Pettersson is somewhat limited, though he has delivered two goals and 11 helpers through 32 games this year. Youngster Owen Pickering figures to see an increase in ice time while Pettersson is on the shelf.

Pettersson (lower body) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Senators.
Pettersson was hurt when he was hit into the boards late in the first period. If Pettersson misses additional time, Ryan Shea could draw back into the lineup to cover his absence. The 28-year-old Pettersson has 13 points over 31 outings this season and has consistently seen top-four minutes.

Pettersson posted an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
Pettersson has a goal and two assists over three games to begin December. He had all of four helpers in November, though he's spaced out his points this season to avoid too many lengthy droughts.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Pots goal in Tuesday's win
Pettersson scored a goal, added three hits and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers.
Pettersson was somewhat steady with four helpers over 14 contests in November, but he hadn't scored since Oct. 10 versus the Red Wings. The 28-year-old defenseman is not an elite source of offense on the blue line, but he brings a steady physical game. For the season, he's at 11 points, 30 shots on net, 32 hits, 52 blocked shots, 19 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 27 contests. He's averaging 22:29 of ice time, just 11 seconds less per game than last year, so he remains a key part of the Penguins' defense.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Plucks apple in overtime loss
Pettersson notched an assist and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to Lightning.
Pettersson has three helpers over his last six contests. The 28-year-old blueliner is often capable of putting up offense that gets him right on the fringe of fantasy interest, with more value in formats that reward his non-scoring contributions. This season, he's racked up nine points, 21 shots on net, 19 PIM, 21 hits, 38 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 21 outings. Pettersson should continue to be a fixture in the Penguins' top four.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Puts up helper
Pettersson logged an assist in Friday's 4-2 win over the Capitals.
Pettersson snapped a four-game dry spell on offense, his longest drought of the campaign so far, when he set up Noel Acciari's empty-net tally. The 28-year-old Pettersson is up to seven points, 13 shots on net, 25 blocked shots, 14 hits, 15 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 16 contests. He's no stranger to putting up big numbers in non-scoring areas, but his pace on offense puts him on the fringe of fantasy rosters in standard formats.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Posts assist Saturday
Pettersson logged an assist in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Collects helper in shootout loss
Pettersson notched an assist and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Flames.
Pettersson snapped a three-game slump with a helper on a Noel Acciari goal in the third period. The 28-year-old Pettersson has a respectable four points over eight contests so far, but he's struggled a bit defensively in a top-four role. The Swede has added 10 shots on net, 10 PIM, eight hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating. He produced a career-high 30 points in 2023-24, but Pettersson's fantasy value is limited to deeper formats since he rarely receives power-play time.

Pettersson scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist and blocked three shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Red Wings.
Pettersson earned both points in a three-goal second period for the Penguins. The 28-year-old defenseman has a strong reputation for his play in his own zone, but he also produced a career-high 30 points with a plus-28 rating, 121 hits and 159 blocked shots in 82 games last season. He's a top-four lock for Pittsburgh and can provide sneaky category coverage in fantasy despite a near-total lack of power-play time.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Scores goal, assist in loss
Pettersson scored a goal on three shots and registered an assist in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to Vancouver.
Pettersson was able to end a six-game pointless streak with his multi-point performance Thursday. The defenseman has been very streaky in terms of offensive production, producing points in just four of his last 13 games, but he generated at least two points in each of those outings for a combined 10 points. Pettersson isn't a factor on the power play but does benefit from pairing with Kris Letang at even strength.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Career-best performance Wednesday
Pettersson notched four assists with one blocked shot and a plus-5 rating in Wednesday's 7-0 win over the Islanders.
Skating alongside Kris Letang has its perks. While Letang was setting an NHL record for a defenseman with a five-point second period, Pettersson nabbed three helpers of his own, before chipping in one more on Pittsburgh's final goal of the night in the third. The four points were a career high for the 27-year-old, but it was his third multi-point performance in the last four games. On the season, Pettersson has 14 points (all assists) in 33 games with 56 blocked shots, 39 hits, 37 shots on net, 20 PIM and a plus-17 rating.

Penguins' Marcus Pettersson: Nabs apple Thursday
Pettersson recorded an assist against the Lightning on Thursday.
Pettersson brought a seven-game pointless streak to a close but has yet to score a goal this season. Considering the Swedish blueliner has reached the 20-point threshold just twice in his NHL career, fantasy players should be expecting him to go through long scoring slumps regularly.
