Petry left the Penguins' previous game vs. Montreal after just 14:42 TOI due to an undisclosed injury but will play Thursday. The 35-year-old has five goals, 21 assists, 100 SOG, 20 PIMs and a +2 plus/minus through 51 games this season.

Petry was absent from the Penguins' practice Wednesday due to illness and is now questionable to play Thursday vs. Edmonton. The 35-year-old has three goals, 16 assists, 78 SOG, 18 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 40 games played this season.


Petry appears set to return to the Penguins lineup on Friday, most likely replacing Mark Friedman in the lineup and quarterbacking the Penguins' top power-play unit. Petry has picked up 12 points (3G / 9A) in 28 games this season.

Petry took part in the morning skate and quarterbacked the top power-play unit but said he'll have to see how he responds after the skate. Petry, who has 12 points (3G / 9A) in 28 games this season, would be a really nice fantasy asset in the short-term with Kris Letang still sidelined.

Petry is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury after it was announced Monday that he would be missing the Penguins' contest vs. the Stars. The 35-year-old has had a solid first season in Pittsburgh, with three goals, 12 points, 18 PIMS, 44 SOG and a +4 plus/minus through 28 games this season.


Petry suffered a lower-body injury against the Panthers on Thursday and is expected to miss an extended period of time. The injury comes at a tough time for Petry, who has been playing his best hockey of the season lately. He has 10 points (3G / 7A) in his last 17 games.


Petry was wearing a non-contact jersey at Monday's practice and is considered day-to-day. Petry must have picked up the upper-body injury in Edmonton on Saturday and is questionable to play Wednesday in Vancouver. Corey Schueneman will likely replace him if he can't go.

The Canadiens' COVID-19 list grew to nine players, one day ahead of Tuesday's game in Tampa. With Petry out, look for Kale Clague to play a much larger role and for Corey Schueneman to make his NHL debut.


Petry has missed the last four games with an upper-body injury but will be a game-time decision on Tuesday. Petry will replace Chris Wideman (personal) if he is available to play in Pittsburgh.

Petry is battling an upper-body injury, so he will not play Saturday. The Canadiens did not announce if he is expected to miss any time beyond Saturday, so monitor his status early next week. Mattias Norlinder should replace him in the lineup.
