[UPDATE] Pre-Game Notes (Pittsburgh VS Philadelphia)

[UPDATE] LETANG ILL
the Penguins webpage reports that Letang is back on the ice today participating in morning skate.

Kris Letang missed practice yesterday due to illness, but is expected to be in the lineup tonight (the report is from yesterday, so if anything changes, I'll post updates here!)

"He was not feeling well," Bylsma said. "It's not injury related. He's just ill. He was sick (Sunday) night and this is a stay away from the rink. He should be better."

[UPDATE] LINE COMBINATIONS (projected)
the lines during the morning skate were as follows (pretty much as projected earlier):
Kunitz-Crosby-Guerin
Dupuis-Malkin-Fedotenko
Cooke-Staal-Kennedy
Rupp-Adams/Talbot-Godard

Kunitz-Crosby-Guerin
Dupuis-Malkin-Fedotenko
Cooke-Staal-Kennedy
Talbot-Adams-Rupp

Gonchar-Orpik
Eaton-Letang
McKee-Goligoski
