Chris Kunitz sustained an upper-body injury and will be a game-time decision for Sunday's road match against the Rangers.

Kunitz opened the scoring for the Penguins in their 7-2 thrashing over the Red Wings on Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately, he also sustained an upper-body injury and will be a game-time decision for Sunday's road match against the Rangers.

Analysis:

Kunitz was injured late in the second period Saturday after Pavel Datsyuk of all people leveled him to the ice, ending his day after skating for 10:18. It's rather ominous that he's already considered a game-time call for Sunday's evening contest, but then again, not all that surprising given that he was shaken up pretty good after the hit and taken straight to the locker room.
