Malkin won't play Saturday.
He will sit out his third consecutive game because of a shoulder injury.
Pittsburgh Penguins News
Lundin-Karlsson
Karlsson has not been cleared to return by any means so even a speculative add wouldn't be worth burning the roster spot at this point. He attended practice for the team photo.
Malkin game time decision but likely won't play. Question-why risk anyone at this point?
Not a lot of games tonight but keep Malkin on the bench of your forward slots are full.
Karlsson had a scheduled off day today, from on ice work. "We anticipate he'll be back on the ice tomorrow," said MacLean. #nhl
Great news for Sens fans but probably a little too late for fantasy owners.
Malkin practicing today. Skating as an extra. #Penguins
Looks like Malkin may miss a second straight game after re-aggravating an upper body injury.
Letang will play tonight vs. #TBLightning, per coach Bylsma #Pens
Letang has missed the Penguins last five games with a broken toe. He was leading all NHL defenseman in points before he got hurt with 28 points in 28 games. Make sure to get him back in your lineup.
The healing of Erik Karlsson’s severed Achilles tendon is going well but there is no timeline for his return to action, his agent, Craig Oster, said Wednesday morning. In an email message, Oster said care will be taken to make sure Karlsson is “fully healthy” before he returns.
Karlsson was injured in a Feb. 13 game against the Pittsburgh Penguins when his left Achilles was cut by Matt Cooke’s left skate. He had surgery to repair the tendon the next day. He has been skating for 30-40 minutes daily at the Bell Sensplex, fueling speculation he may return this season.
Letang will not play against Carolina.
Letang returned to practice yesterday, but remains out with a broken toe.
Erik Karlsson is on the ice again today at Bell Sensplex.
Karlsson skated yesterday for the firs time since getting his achilles sliced. He is still likely to miss the rest of the regular season, but you never know. This is an incredible recovery and he should at least be back for a Senators playoff run. If you have an empty roster spot, why not stash him and hope he returns in time for you to be in the Fantasy Finals.
Letang is the last player to step onto the ice for the Penguins' game-day skate.
Letang is on the ice with his teammates right now but is taking line-rushes on the 4th D-pairing, which would suggest he won't play tonight. Coach Bylsma will likely give an update on Letang following practice.
Timetable for Sidney Crosby still undetermined. Will be seeing doctor later this week. Crosby struggling to keep on weight. #Penguins
Monitor his status later this week when a definitive timetable for his return should be released.
Erik Karlsson skates! Less than 2 months after slicing his achilles, Karlsson looked very good in a workout this am with Marc
Power.
Karlsson is still not expected to be back in the regular season, but the Senators could certainly use him in the playoffs. This is a great sign for Ottawa fans.
Kris Letang just took the ice at Southpointe for practice. First time back with his teammates.
Letang has missed the Penguins last five games with a broken toe. This is positive news that he could return tomorrow vs. the Hurricanes.
No injury updates. I'm expecting Letang to play Tuesday in Raleigh.
Letang skated on his own this morning but not with the team. He will miss his fifth straight game tonight when the Pens take on the Rangers. He has the entire weekend to get ready for Pittsburgh's next game on Tuesday.
Crosby visited the Penguins this morning at CEC. He did not work out and the team has not updated his status. Still out indefinitely.
Word is that Crosby is NOT suffering from any concussion-like symptoms.
Bylsma says Crosby has left the hospital and returned to his home.
There is still no timetable for Crosby's return but he is likely done for the rest of the regular season.
All 22 healthy Penguins players are participating in the game-day skate. Letang is not.
This means it is unlikely that Letang will play tonight vs. the Sabres. We will get confirmation following the morning skate.
Letang will be on the ice again tomorrow by himself, but no timeline going forward #Pens
Letang will miss his third straight game and sixth in the last seven when the Penguins play tomorrow. His original timetable was 7-10 days so he could return later this week.
Penguins announce Crosby out indefinitely after undergoing surgery for a broken jaw.
This could keep Crosby out for the remainder of the regular season. With them virtually locked into a playoff spot there would be no reason for them to rush their captain back. A timetable for his return has not yet been released.
Can confirm #Penguins Crosby had surgery yesterday to his jaw. Extent of the damage still being evaluated today. Out indefinitely
Crosby took a puck to the mouth in his first shift of yesterday's game. A more detailed evaluation will likely be released tomorrow. Monitor his status.
