#Pens coach Bylsma: Kennedy is suffering from concussion like symptoms and will need to be re-evaluated -SK

Yet another important offensive player finds the shelf. Kennedy already scored a goal and three points over his first six but is now out indefinitely. Look for Steve MacIntyre to draw in or for the team to recall someone from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.

Sullivan - Malkin - Kennedy looks unreal

Playing a full season next to Evgeni Malkin will assuredly help him produce similar numbers as last season. The converted pivot tallied 21 goals for Dan Blysma's Pens last season.

Tyler Kennedy, coming off a 21-goal season, will get a place on the No. 2 line, alongside Evgeni Malkin and Steve Sullivan, although Kennedy might get occasional work in his customary spot with Jordan Staal and Matt Cooke on the third line.

Playing Kennedy on either the second or third line will give him the opportunity to score 20 goals once more. He proved last season that he did not need top-line minutes in order to produce offensively.
