Crosby took line rushes on the Penguins "fifth" line which would suggest that he won't play tomorrow. He did practice on the #1 power-play unit. I think he will be back for game 1 of the playoffs. If not he should be back at some point in the first round.
Crosby could return for game 1 of the NHL playoffs.
Crosby is expected to ask to be cleared to play either today or tomorrow. He could be available for the first game of the playoffs.
He was expected to miss 4-6 months when he had his Achilles tendon 70% severed in February. It is almost unbelievable but Karlsson will in fact be in the Senators lineup tonight. He will be paired with Marc Methot. If you picked him up in a daily league, you're probably pretty happy right now. Get him in your lineup!
As he did yesterday Karlsson is practicing as if he is going to play tonight. However he said he was not sure if he was in for sure. We will have to wait for an update after practice from the Senators. Stay tuned.
Monitor Karlsson's status tomorrow's afternoon to see if he will be in the lineup.
It looks like Karlsson will return tomorrow vs. Washington. Monitor his status.
Letang missed last night's game with an illness but he will be back tonight vs. the Sabres. He has five goals and 29 assists in 32 games thus far which has him ranked second amongst NHL defenseman. Get him in your lineup.
Malkin will return to the Pens lineup after missing their last five games with a shoulder injury. He is an elite player so obviously you should get him into your lineup. He has missed a lot of time this year with injuries which has limited his production but he still has eight goals and 21 assists in 28 games.
Letang missed Sunday's practice and was not on the ice again this morning because of an illness. The Penguins have locked up the Eastern Conference so there is no need for their star players to be playing if they aren't at 100%.
Although Karlsson has started practicing and appears to be nearing a return, he will not play tonight. He might not play in the regular season but his status is worth keeping an eye on.
Karlsson is practicing again this morning. He looks like he is ready to return to the Senators lineup soon, which is nothing short of miraculous. If he is available in your league, pick him up. We'll have to wait and see if he will be in the lineup tonight when the Sens take on the Penguins. Monitor his status later in the day.
He will sit out his third consecutive game because of a shoulder injury.
Karlsson has not been cleared to return by any means so even a speculative add wouldn't be worth burning the roster spot at this point. He attended practice for the team photo.
Not a lot of games tonight but keep Malkin on the bench of your forward slots are full.
Great news for Sens fans but probably a little too late for fantasy owners.
Looks like Malkin may miss a second straight game after re-aggravating an upper body injury.
Letang has missed the Penguins last five games with a broken toe. He was leading all NHL defenseman in points before he got hurt with 28 points in 28 games. Make sure to get him back in your lineup.
Karlsson was injured in a Feb. 13 game against the Pittsburgh Penguins when his left Achilles was cut by Matt Cooke’s left skate. He had surgery to repair the tendon the next day. He has been skating for 30-40 minutes daily at the Bell Sensplex, fueling speculation he may return this season.
Letang returned to practice yesterday, but remains out with a broken toe.
