McCann was hurt on Sunday and will not be available for Tuesday's game vs. the Rangers. With McCann out, look for Evan Rodrigues to move up to the second line with Evgeni Malkin and Kasperi Kapanen.
McCann was forced to leave Sunday's game vs. New York with an upper-body injury and head coach Mike Sullivan had this to say: "Jared's playing really well for us. It's discouraging to see him go down with an injury. Hopefully, it'll be something that won't be too long, we're hopeful here we'll get some positive news." Evan Rodrigues moved to Evgeni Malkin's wing with McCann out, so look for him to skate there Tuesday if McCann can't go.
McCann was hurt in a practice session earlier in the week and will miss at least a week with a lower-body issue. With McCann out week-to-week, it creates a hole on the Penguins' third-line, which could be filled by Zach Aston-Reese (shoulder) on Thursday.
Amadio is expected to be a healthy scratch Tuesday vs. the Avalanche and will be replaced Lias Andersson, who will make his Kings debut.
Amadio served as a healthy scratch for the last two games but will return to the lineup on Saturday. Amadio comes in with four points (2G / 2A) in 11 games this season.
McCann has missed two of the last three games with a lower-body issue but will play against his former team on Tuesday. With many Penguins forwards still out, McCann will be back in the second-line centre role and comes into play with three goals and one assist in seven games.
McCann was a game-time decision on Wednesday and was held out of the lineup vs. the Avalanche but was at practice on Thursday and remains a game-time decision on Friday. It looks more likely that he will play tonight than it did two days ago, but monitor his status during warmups.
McCann missed Monday’s practice with a lower-body injury and will be a game-time decision on Wednesday. The Penguins are ravaged by injuries upfront, so they will dress a seventh defenseman if McCann can’t play.
McCann missed Monday’s practice with a lower-body injury and head coach Mike Sullivan called him “day-to-day” after the session. The injury bug continues to bite the Penguins, who could be without McCann, Evgeni Malkin, Alex Galchenyuk, Nick Bjugstad and Bryan Rust on Thursday.
