Pittsburgh Penguins head coach Mike Sullivan told reporters that centre Evgeni Malkin will be a game-time decision for Thursday’s tilt against the Edmonton Oilers.
Malkin, who missed Tuesday’s 4-3 shootout loss due to an upper-body injury, skated before the team’s morning practice.
Malkin, 38, is third on the team in scoring with 32 points (eight goals and 24 assists) in 41 games.
The 19-year NHL veteran crossed the 500-goal plateau earlier this season and sits at 506 goals and 1,328 points in his career.
Pittsburgh (17-17-8) has lost four straight games and is fifth in the Metropolitan Division record.
Edmonton (25-12-3) is second in the Pacific Division and looks to extend its four-game winning streak.
Watch the Penguins host the Oilers live on Sportsnet and Sportsnet+, starting at 7 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. MT.
