The Pittsburgh Penguins have made a strategic move to bolster their goaltending position by acquiring Arturs Silovs from the Vancouver Canucks. The trade involved sending forward Chase Stillman and a fourth-round pick in 2027 to Vancouver. Silovs, a 24-year-old Latvian, recently showcased his talent as the playoff MVP in the AHL, leading the Abbotsford Canucks to the Calder Cup.

Though he has only 19 NHL games under his belt with an 8-8-2 record, his impressive AHL stats, including a 2.41 goals-against average and a 90.8 save percentage last season, indicate significant potential. Currently, Tristan Jarry tops Pittsburgh's goalie chart, but Silovs could add valuable depth and, if he continues to develop, might become a reliable contributor in the NHL.
