5 years agoPittsburgh Penguins right wing Bryan Rust finished Tuesday's 7-3 win over Ottawa with his third career hat trick. Evgeni Malkin registered four assists, while both Sidney Crosby and Jason Zucker notched one goal and two assists. The Pens have been slumping for a while, so this was exactly what the doctor ordered. They meet another struggling side on Thursday in a matchup against Buffalo. Rust will be looking to add to his 27 goals and 53 points. He had a dry spell at the start of last month, but the 27-year-old winger has slowly picked up momentum again with eight points in his past eight games.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
