Pittsburgh was very direct today (for once) regarding the health of two star players. Center Jordan Staal and Forward James Neal are out for a while with injuries.
But wait! There’s more! Craig Adams left practice today with an apparent knee injury.
No doubt, call-ups from Wilkes-Barre are coming. Most likely in the form of Eric Tangradi for Neal and either Jason Williams or Ryan Craig for Staal. Who ever loses out on the replacement for Staal could very well be the replacement for Adams between Williams and Craig, if a third call-up is needed.
Wilkes-Barre leaves for Norfolk tomorrow. There may be a few extra seats available on that bus.
In the opening sentence of the grim report by the Pens, they used the “When it rains, it pours” line.
Someone send a truck full of umbrellas to Pittsburgh, immediately!
Let’s Go Pens!
