Schwartz has missed the last two games with a lower-body injury but was on the ice for Monday's morning skate and will be a game-time decision vs. the Penguins. Schwartz skated on the top line with Yanni Gourde and Jordan Eberle (who is also a game-time decision) in the session.

Eberle has missed the last two games with a lower-body injury but was on the ice for Monday's morning skate and will be a game-time decision vs. the Penguins. Eberle skated on the top line with Yanni Gourde and Jaden Schwartz (who is also a game-time decision) in the session.

Schwartz picked up a lower-body injury in Buffalo on Monday and will miss Wednesday's game in Detroit. The Kraken recalled Kole Lind from the AHL and he's expected to replace Schwartz in the lineup.
