With Silovs Acquisition, Penguins’ Goaltending Situation Just Got More Complicated

On Sunday, the Pittsburgh Penguins acquired goaltender Arturs Silovs from the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for forward Chase Stillman and a 2027 fourth-round draft pick.

This move comes less than two weeks after the Penguins sent netminder Alex Nedeljkovic to the San Jose Sharks in a trade for a 2028 third-round pick. When that trade happened, it appeared that the Penguins were finally aiming to address their organizational goaltending logjam in order to give some younger guys their chance to stick on the NHL roster.
