Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Olli Maatta could be a healthy scratch for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Final against the Tampa Bay Lightning at Consol Energy Center on Monday (8 p.m. ET; NBCSN, CBC, TVA Sports).
Penguins coach Mike Sullivan said his sixth defenseman would be a game-time decision, but Maatta remained on the ice after the rest of the regulars left, including defenseman Justin Schultz. He has played three games in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, most recently in against the Washington Capitals Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Second Round.
