Zucker has been out for just over one month with a lower-body injury but was on the ice for Sunday's practice and is a game-time decision for Monday's clash with the Islanders. The Penguins are in desperate need of some healthy forwards, so Zucker will slot right back into the top-6 if he plays on Monday.
