OTTAWA – Here are the projected lineups for the Pittsburgh Penguins and Ottawa Senators on Sunday evening at Scotiabank Place. Because of the 5 p.m. start, the Senators did not practice, but the Penguins held an optional skate.
PENGUINS
Chris Kunitz – Sidney Crosby – Pascal Dupuis
Tyler Kennedy – Evgeni Malkin – James Neal
Dustin Jeffrey – Brandon Sutter – Matt Cooke
Eric Tangradi – Joe Vitale – Craig Adams
Tanner Glass went hard into the boards during the Penguins’ game against Winnipeg on Friday, and was held out of practice in Ottawa on Saturday. Jeffrey, who has been a healthy scratch for the past three games, took his place in the lineup. Glass participated in the optional skate on Sunday, so his status may be a game time decision.
Scratches: Robert Bortuzzo, Simon Despres
SENATORS
Milan Michalek – Jason Spezza – Jakob Silfverberg
Zack Smith – Kyle Turris – Daniel Alfredsson
Colin Greening – Peter Regin – Chris Neil
Kaspars Daugavins – Jim O’Brien – Erik Condra
