With the Cup final set to begin tonight, both teams are gearing up for a long and tough fight. Along the Playoff path, the Pens and the Preds lost a few important pieces of the roster, but time and the wonder of science can make miracle. Getting back players from the injured list is always an exciting time for sure. 

This is exactly what happened today, as Coach Sullivan confirmed Patric Hornqvist will be back in the regular lineup for Game 1 tonight. 

There were rumors about his potential return but it's now set in stone. The fast and skilled forward was dearly missed by his team, as he added a lot of speed to the lineup. His return comes at the right time, for the Preds defensive squad is not exactly an easy nut to crack. Adding speed is critical to creating chances and that's exactly what coach Sullivan expects out of Hornqvist.
