A last minute lineup change to report ahead of Saturday afternoon’s game between the Canucks and Penguins.
Pittsburgh forward Chris Kunitz won’t suit up in the game. He’ll be replaced by Conor Sheary.
Kunitz had been dealing with a lower-body injury, but earlier today Pens head coach Mike Sullivan said his veteran winger would be good to go for the game.
Sheary has two goals, three points and a minus-5 rating in 14 games this season.
Last minute #Pens lineup change: Chris Kunitz will be out. Sheary will take his place in the lineup.
