Penguins without Jake Guentzel at practice as road trip begins

However, after absorbing a bunch of damage up high last night against the Kings, Guentzel was not able to practice today and the Penguins have re-worked their lines for the first time this season as a result. Guentzel was drilled in the head by Brendan Lemieux in the third period, and then returned only to take an accidental slap shot to the ear from teammate Kris Letang, ending Guentzel’s night.
