Carter Rowney ready to shift to center if Penguins need it

The Penguins may have to do some lineup shuffling due to injury for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup final Saturday night.

Center Nick Bonino was the only player absent from the team’s practice Friday, and coach Mike Sullivan said he is day-to-day with a lower-body injury.

Bonino hobbled off the ice with help from trainers after blocking a P.K. Subban slap shot with his left ankle in the first period of the Penguins’ 4-1 win against Nashville in Game 2 Wednesday.

He returned for the second period and finished the game. Sullivan said he, like the rest of the lineup, will be a game-time decision for Game 3 Saturday night.
