Looks like Kris Letang will be back tonight

It looks like the Penguins are about to get their top defenseman back. Kris Letang was a full go at the morning skate, skating on the top pair and also working with the first power play.

Letang is taking rushes with Dumoulin. Here is the Penguins workflow...

After the skate, Letang said he still needed to talk to doctors and coaches to get the final plan about playing tonight set, but also that his body feels like it’s a go after being out since December 28th with an undisclosed lower body injury.
