McCann was hurt on Sunday and will not be available for Tuesday's game vs. the Rangers. With McCann out, look for Evan Rodrigues to move up to the second line with Evgeni Malkin and Kasperi Kapanen.
McCann was forced to leave Sunday's game vs. New York with an upper-body injury and head coach Mike Sullivan had this to say: "Jared's playing really well for us. It's discouraging to see him go down with an injury. Hopefully, it'll be something that won't be too long, we're hopeful here we'll get some positive news." Evan Rodrigues moved to Evgeni Malkin's wing with McCann out, so look for him to skate there Tuesday if McCann can't go.
Kakko will play for the first time since February 18th and is expected to skate on the second line with Ryan Strome and Chris Kreider. Kakko has scored two goals with one assist in 14 games this season.
Kakko was recently activated off of the COVID-19 reserve list but will not return to the lineup Thursday in New Jersey. Head coach David Quinn said he's "certainly close" so look for him to play Saturday.
