үӯ ABOUT THE PENS
The Pens limped — literally and figuratively — into the all-star break, having gone 0-2-2 in their last four and 4-6-4 in their last 14.
Pittsburgh has already lost 205-man games to injury and that number will rise. Both Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, who missed the all-star game, are out; Blake Comeau, Patrick Hornqvist and Simon Despres have all been out while Pascal Dupuis and Olli Maatta are gone for the year.
Kris Letang, who suffered a concussion after taking a nasty shot from Zac Rinaldo last week, practised with the team on Monday but will need medical clearance before getting the green light to go against the Jets. Hornqvist, meanwhile, was also back on the ice on Monday.
The Pens called up four players from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton: Andrew Ebbett, Scott Wilson, Bryan Rust and Scott Harrington.
Even with all their injuries, the Pens still have the NHL’s sixth-best power-play at 22.2 per cent.
Chris Kunitz has 14 goals for the Pens this year, seven on the power-play and four of which have been game winners.
