The Penguins are on an unusual road trip, in Newark, NJ yet not playing until tomorrow night in Brooklyn. And they’re not practicing today, so there probably won’t be much news on Kris Letang or seeing how the newly recalled Sam Lafferty may or may not fit into the top-12 forward group immediately.
One item that did happen in the Penguins’ adjacent world was Game 2 of the annual Canada-Russia Series, this game featuring basically a QMJHL All-Star team against a group of junior aged Russian players. The Q won 4-3 in overtime, Pittsburgh prospect Nathan Legare scored a nice goal in the second period.
