Penguins' Patric Hornqvist: Looks good Friday morning

Hornqvist (hand) skated Friday morning and had no problems with stickhandling or shooting, Jonathan Bombulie of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

Analysis:

Despite taking a puck to his left hand in Game 3 on Wednesday, Hornqvist is expected to be available for Friday's Game 4 against the Lightning. He's important to the Pens as a two-way player who loves to block the net in the attacking zone and score at close range. Hornqvist's six goals in the playoffs have him ranked second on the team, only behind fellow winger Phil Kessel and his seven tallies.
