The Pittsburgh Penguins will play the Detroit Red Wings in their second of four pre-season games on Tuesday night.
The Penguins beat the Buffalo Sabres 4-1 in their pre-season opener Monday night and will field a different lineup for Tuesday's game.
Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin will both be in the lineup, and we'll get a glimpse of what their lines will likely look like when the regular season starts next Wednesday in Philadelphia.
We'll also get to see Liam Ruck and Markus Ruck together after the Penguins selected both in the 2026 NHL Draft.
Goaltender Arturs Silovs will play the entire game, with Taylor Gauthier as the backup.
Here are the expected lines and pairs:
Forwards
Robertson-Crosby-Rakell
Chinakhov-Novak-Malkin
McGroarty-Zonnon-Calvert
L. Ruck-M. Ruck-Ilyin
Defensemen
Girard-Korczak
Carlile-Solovyov
Galvas-Harding
Tomas Galvas will make his pre-season debut on the third pair after being scratched on Monday. He's had a quiet camp, but will get to show what he can do in a game on Tuesday.
Forward Carter Sanderson and defenseman Phil Kemp appear to be the scratches.
Puck drop is set for 7 p.m. ET on SportsNet Pittsburgh. Fans can also listen to the game on 105.9 'The X.'
