Penguins' Patric Hornqvist: Showing progress
Hornqvist (concussion) has been able to skate with contact, and the Penguins are hoping that he'll return soon.
Analysis:
Hornqvist is effectively ruled out for Saturday's game, but this latest report leaves us optimistic on behalf of his fantasy owners that he could potentially draw into Wednesday's road match versus the Islanders. A terrific net-front presence, Hornqvist has collected 13 points (five goals, eight assists) in 16 games this season to complement a plus-2 rating and seven markings on the man advantage.
