Malkin and Staal are playing
Sure sounds like both players will get in tonight.
Malkin and Staal game time decisions
No other information was given on Malkin so check back prior to game time.
"Not (feeling) bad. I'm not happy about watching, but I have to make sure with these sort of things that I'm careful and making sure I'm 100 percent before coming back,” Crosby said. “No timetable (for return).?"
Crosby obviously calls the shots with regards to when he plays or doesn't. Once again, when he returns is completely up to him.
Bylsma noncommittal on whether Crosby will play Tuesday.
Crosby was expected to miss two games for precautionary measures but likely misses more time. As soon as there is a further update on his status, we will write about it right here.
Bylsma: Crosby had slight headache after practice yesterday.
The Pens continue to air on the side of caution with their captain. Nevertheless, this news is not good for fantasy hockey owners.

Not great news for fantasy hockey owners. Stay tuned for a further update on Sid the Kid.
