Sidney Crosby will play tonight but there a few changes to the Penguins lineup as Ruslan Fedotenko will be sidelined with a groin injury. Read more for the latest Lineup news. Blues enforcer David Koci the player who sidelined Sergei Gonchar for 4-6 months, is expected to be a healthy scratch.

Cooke – Crosby – Satan
Pesonen – Malkin – Sykora
Minard – Staal – Kennedy
Talbot – Zigomanis – Godard
D-Pairings
Orpik – Letang
Gill – Scuderi
Sydor – Goligoski
Marc Andre Fleury
Due to the injuries, the morning skate was not a good barometer of what to expect tonight but I just received confirmation that these were the lines used on the Penguins final drill. Still there was a lot of line juggling that saw Satan, Minard, Kennedy and Talbot skate with Crosby during parts of today’s morning skate, so it is not a guarantee that Minard and Satan will start the game with Crosby.
Blues Projected Lineup
Stempniak – McDonald – Boyes
Kariya – Oshie – Perron
Tkachuk – Berglund – Backes
Hinote – McClement – Janssen
Brewer – Jackman
McKee – Polak
Pietrangelo – Wagner
Mason
