Sidney Crosby is not officially in the Penguins lineup for tonight’s game against the Florida Panthers, but it would take something abnormal — some sort of setback between now and 7 p.m. — to keep him out.
Speaking after the team’s morning skate Tuesday at PPG Paints Arena, coach Mike Sullivan said it was tracking toward Crosby making his 2016-17 debut tonight against Florida.
Crosby sustained a concussion Oct. 7 and returned to practice in full capacity Monday.
