Hornqvist set to return, but what of Schultz?

CRANBERRY, Pa. -- Patric Hornqvist is 189 pounds of attitude and aggressiveness.

Some opponents find playing against him to be as much fun as having a pebble -- or maybe a rusty razor blade -- in their skate.

The rest don't find the experience to be nearly that pleasant.

Hornqvist adds an element to the Penguins' lineup that none of his teammates can -- "He's unique to our team, because we don't have a lot of guys like him," Mike Sullivan said -- and indications are that he'll resume doing that when the Penguins face the Islanders Thursday at 7:08 p.
