As the Penguins prepare to face the Philadelphia Flyers for a final time this season (in the regular season, anyways) they will do so with some new personnel together defensively. From Jonathan Bombulie at the Trib:
Jamie Oleksiak has taken Brian Dumoulin’s spot on the team’s top defense pair with Kris Letang. The new top pair played together some in Friday night’s 4-3 overtime loss to New Jersey and was together again at Saturday afternoon’s practice in Cranberry.
Dumoulin skated on the second pair with Justin Schultz. Olli Maatta and Chad Ruhwedel stayed together on the third pair.
