Lafferty (illness) will not play on Saturday.

The Penguins have recalled Sam Lafferty from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL) on an emergency basis.
Lafferty was a fourth-round pick of the Penguins back in 2014 and he is expected to make his NHL debut on Tuesday because Evgeni Malkin and Nick Bjugstad are out with lower-body injuries. Lafferty was held pointless in his first AHL game of this season but had 49 points (13G / 46A) in 70 games last year.
