The Blue Jackets’ Seth Jones slashes the Penguins’ Sidney Crosby during the third period Tuesday, Feb. 26, 2019, in Columbus, Ohio. Jones was called for a penalty on the play.

Even though the NHL trade deadline has come and gone, questions abound for the Pittsburgh Penguins.

• Can they wiggle into the playoffs?

• How many points can they get during this critical nine-game stretch against fellow Eastern Conference playoff contenders?

• How will Mike Sullivan and Jim Rutherford try to get through Bryan Rust’s and Chad Ruhwedel’s “longer term” absences?

• Are there any dark horse teams that will make a late push to complicate the playoff picture?

• Will the next two rematches against Columbus be harder than the 5-2 win on Tuesday?

• Is Patric Hornqvist finally about to get on track as he rejoins Sidney Crosby’s line?
