Rakell scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Rakell has scored in four straight games. The 33-year-old is up to five goals, four assists, 37 shots on net, 16 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 15 appearances. He had poor luck early in the season, but the recent surge has turned things around for Rakell, who should remain a steady top-six presence for the Penguins.

Rakell scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Canadiens.
Rakell's resurgence continued despite the loss. He's scored in four of the last five games and has a total of six points in that span. The 33-year-old is up to four goals, four assists, 35 shots on net, 16 hits, 12 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 14 appearances. As long as Rakell stays on the top line, he should be able to provide good scoring numbers and a bit of all-around production.

Rakell scored a shorthanded goal on three shots, added three hits and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Mammoth.
Rakell started the year cold, but he has three goals and an assist over his last four contests. He's involved on both sides of special teams while seeing top-line minutes at even strength, so it's no surprise he's gotten his offense going. The 33-year-old tends to run a little streaky with his scoring. He has three goals, three helpers, 33 shots on net, 15 hits, 12 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating across 13 appearances.

Rakell scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.
Rakell is starting to get on track, earning three points over his last three games. The 33-year-old has produced two goals, three assists, 30 shots on net, 13 hits, nine blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 12 outings this season. Rakell's offense can run streaky, but he's firmly in a top-six job with power-play time, giving him plenty of opportunities to build momentum on offense.

Rakell scored a power-play goal on three shots and added an even-strength assist in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Rakell not only opened his goal-scoring account for the season, but he also snapped a seven-game point drought with his first multi-point effort of the campaign. His involvement in both a power-play goal and a late scoring play is encouraging, but he'll need more consistent production to overcome his slow start, especially in a middle-six role.
