Zatkoff will serve in a backup role Saturday, as the Penguins have a road game against the Islanders, Josh Getzoff of PensTV reports.

Analysis:

Zatkoff hasn't played since Feb. 20, when the Lightning blew him up to the tune of four goals on 20 shots in a loss. Fellow netminder Matt Murray figures to draw the lion's share of playing time between the pipes with No. 1 tender Marc-Andre Fleury (concussion) out indefinitely. Including Saturday's contest, the Pens have just five games left on the regular-season calendar.
