Penguins Playoff Bulletin: Sid Skates!

There’s good news on the Sidney Crosby injury front. Check that…great news! The Pens’ captain skated with skills coach Ty Hennes this morning.

No, he’s not suiting up for Game 6 tonight. Hopefully a precautionary measure. But it fuels hope that Sid might be ready for a Game 7 should one be required.

Ditto goalie Tristan Jarry, who won’t play tonight but seems to be nearing a return. Forward Rickard Rakell, believed to have suffered a concussion in Game 1, is a game-time decision.

With two goals and nine points in only five games, Crosby’s enjoyed a terrific postseason thus far. He’s presently tied for fourth in the league in playoff scoring.
