ELMONT, N.Y. -- The Penguins will be without one forward against the Islanders tonight in Evgeni Malkin, who will be serving the first of his four-game suspension.
They'll have one forward back in the lineup, though, as Brock McGinn makes his return from his wrist injury, suffered while blocking a shot March 11 in a game against the Golden Knights.
"Those are things you've got to do," McGinn said of blocking shots. "Maybe sometimes that's the consequence. But I'm happy that everything is going smoothly. And the trainers did a good job with my rehab and making sure everything went well.
