Good news for the Penguins on the injury front as Steve Downie is practicing today after taking a vicious elbow to the chin from Ryan Suter in Tuesday’s game. Suter will have a hearing with the league and apologized after Tuesday’s game. “I reached for the puck, Suter said. “I kind of poked it, then I went to put my hand up on the stick and he, like ran into {my elbow}. I hope he’s alright.” Downie played just 6:09 vs the Wild.
