Just spoke with Shero. He confirmed that Letang has been cleared to play and could see game action before the all-star break.

#Pens GM Shero tells @MarkMaddenX he anticipates Letang to practice with the team Tues -Sam
Great news for Letang as he is expected to practice for the first time since getting concussed. While this remains the first step in his recovery, expect him to be brought along slowly.
#Penguins C Sidney Crosby, who still has balance/motion trouble, meeting with concussion specialist Ted Carrick this week.
Doesn't sound like Crosby will be returning to the lineup any time soon. The Pens will continue playing it safe with their captain and leader.
Letang is skating rigorously it Pittsburgh. May practice with team soon.
Letang registered 19 points in 22 games before getting hurt. He remains out indefinitely with a concussion as the Pens carefully handle his rehab.
Sid takes the ice. Practicing with team.
Crosby continues to skate with the team which is a great sign. He obviously has no timetable for his return.
#CBJ place C Jeff Carter on injured reserve. He is listed as week-to-week with a shoulder injury suffered Jan. 8 at Anaheim.
Expecting Carter to play again this month would definitely be a stretch. The team's top line center scored 10 goals and 17 points in 30 games with the club before getting hurt. Temper your expectations of him getting back to an elite level this season.
AM skate wrapping up so Crosby not doing drills. And no C on his practice jersey.
Crosby continues to skate which is an excellent sign. The lack of C is in support of the Pens captain, who has not been able to lead the team on the ice. He still has no timetable for a return.
#CBJ GM Scott Howson had no update on C Jeff Carter (shoulder) today. He will have full evaluation when team returns to Columbus.
Carter remains out indefinitely with a separated shoulder. It would be surprising for him to return during this month.
Crosby still exercising lightly. No other update given
Crosby still has no timetable for his return although any physical activity is a good sign.
#CBJ C Jeff Carter (shoulder) will not play Tuesday vs Blackhawks but no timeline on his return yet.
Expect Carter to miss at least a couple games with his shoulder injury.
Penguins D Kris Letang is skating hard in puck-handling drills. Doesn't mean he's on verge of playing, but certainly a positive sign.
Definitely another step in the right direction for Letang and the Pens. He still remains a ways away from playing with contact or getting into a game.
#CBJ Head Coach Scott Arniel just told the media that Jeff Carter has a separated shoulder and will be further evaluated tomorrow.
Check back for a further update on how long Carter will miss.
Letang skated this morning, good sign
Letang getting back on the ice is definitely a good sign. However, the Pens will continue to play it safe with their prized offensive d-man.
Letang feeling better.
While Letang is feeling better, getting back on the ice is definitely the next step. He last played on November 26th.
#Pens coach Bylsma: Crosby still w symptoms. Doing light exercises.
Hard to argue with Crosby staying on the sidelines. The most talented player in hockey will not play as long as he does not feel 100 percent.
Bylsma: No updates on Letang or Crosby.
Both players remain out indefinitely.
