Penguins' Bryan Rust: Active return Friday
Rust was held without a point Friday, registering one blocked shot, two hits and four shots against the Islanders.
Analysis:
He skated right wing on a line with Matt Cullen and Phil Kessel, picking up 16:19 (his third-highest total in 51 games). Rust, who is one of six right-handed shots among Pittsburgh forwards, looks to continue playing as a top-six forward, especially on a depleted roster.
