Petry is expected to miss his second straight game on Tuesday as he continues to recover from an upper-body injury. The Michigan native is currently listed as day-to-day. He has two points (0G / 2A) and six penalty minutes in four games this season.
The Red Wings are going with a more conventional lineup today after opting to dress seven defensemen in Saturday's game against the Senators, and Petry is the odd man out. Petry has registered two assists, four shots on goal, and seven hits in four game this season. Subbing in for Petry is Jonatan Berggren, who is set to make his season debut alongside Austin Czarnik and Christian Fischer on Detroit's fourth line.

Petry was traded to the Canadiens as a part of the Erik Karlsson trade a couple of weeks ago, and 25 percent of his salary was retained then. Detroit getting him with an additional 50 percent retained means he'll come in at $2.344M AAV for the next two seasons. The 35-year-old is a Michigan native and is coming off a 31-point (5G / 26A) season, appearing in just 61 games for the Penguins.
Petry surprisingly returns to Montreal after just one season after being included as part of a three-way trade which saw Erik Karlsson head to Pittsburgh and three players and a 1st-round pick head to San Jose. The 35-year-old defensemen left Montreal for Pittsburgh after eight seasons and had five goals, 26 assists, 113 SOG, 24 PIMs and a +2 plus/minus in 61 games in 2022-23.
Petry has been out for the Penguins' previous five games due to an upper-body injury but will be a game-time decision Tuesday vs. Detroit. The 35-year-old veteran defender has five goals, 21 assists, 100 SOG, 20 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 52 games played this season prior to his injury.

Petry left the Penguins' previous game vs. Montreal after just 14:42 TOI due to an undisclosed injury but will play Thursday. The 35-year-old has five goals, 21 assists, 100 SOG, 20 PIMs and a +2 plus/minus through 51 games this season.
Petry was absent from the Penguins' practice Wednesday due to illness and is now questionable to play Thursday vs. Edmonton. The 35-year-old has three goals, 16 assists, 78 SOG, 18 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 40 games played this season.
Petry appears set to return to the Penguins lineup on Friday, most likely replacing Mark Friedman in the lineup and quarterbacking the Penguins' top power-play unit. Petry has picked up 12 points (3G / 9A) in 28 games this season.
Petry took part in the morning skate and quarterbacked the top power-play unit but said he'll have to see how he responds after the skate. Petry, who has 12 points (3G / 9A) in 28 games this season, would be a really nice fantasy asset in the short-term with Kris Letang still sidelined.
Petry is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury after it was announced Monday that he would be missing the Penguins' contest vs. the Stars. The 35-year-old has had a solid first season in Pittsburgh, with three goals, 12 points, 18 PIMS, 44 SOG and a +4 plus/minus through 28 games this season.

Petry was wearing a non-contact jersey at Monday's practice and is considered day-to-day. Petry must have picked up the upper-body injury in Edmonton on Saturday and is questionable to play Wednesday in Vancouver. Corey Schueneman will likely replace him if he can't go.
