Injuries have definitely been ravaging the Penguins roster this year. However we might have some good news regarding Evgeni Malkin. He has been practicing with the team since Saturday and seems to be very close to a return. He is traveling with the team for the upcoming western Canada road trip and he will most likely be back in the lineup either Wednesday or Friday. However, the news for Christian Ehrhoff is not as good. He has been suffering from concussion like symptoms and is still going through tests. He has not been diagnosed with a concussion yet, so we will have to wait to see what the tests discover and if the symptoms start to subside.
