Pittsburgh -- Pittsburgh Penguins netminder Marc-Andre Fleury did not dress for Game 1 of the Penguins' first-round playoff series against the New York Rangers Wednesday night.
Jeff Zatkoff was pressed into duty as the surprise starter for the Penguins.
Fleury has been recovering from his second concussion this season but practiced on Monday and Tuesday and took the morning skate Wednesday, leading to the belief that he would return to action for Game 1 of the playoffs.
But when the teams took the ice for the pregame warm-up, the Penguins were led by Zatkoff, who will be appearing in his first NHL playoff action.
