Everything's coming up Kris Letang.
The star defenseman will play for the Pittsburgh Penguins in a preseason game Sunday against the St. Louis Blues, Penguins head coach Mike Sullivan confirmed Saturday.
It will be Letang's first game action since Feb. 21. He was limited to 41 regular-season games last season and missed the Penguins' entire Stanley Cup championship run due to a neck injury.
Letang was cleared to play earlier this month.
He got another piece of good news Saturday, as Sullivan also revealed the blue-liner will wear an "A" as alternate captain this season, taking over for the departed Chris Kunitz, who signed with the Tampa Bay Lightning on July 1.
