Keith Yandle doesn't skate, will play for Rangers in Game 3

PITTSBURGH — Puck-moving defenseman Keith Yandle did not participate in the Rangers' Monday morning skate at CONSOL Energy Center, but coach Alain Vigneault said Yandle simply was feeling under the weather and will remain in the lineup for Game 3.

"He just wasn't feeling well this morning," Vigneault said. "He'll be in the lineup tonight. He's just taking fluids, and he should be good to go."

Yandle (two assists in the series) left the Rangers' bench in the first period of Game 2 and missed almost the entire second half of the period after consecutive hits by Pens forward Blake Comeau.
