Malkin to return Wed...

TSN is reporting on their homepage (gotta love TSN for Hockey) that Therrien said during practice today that Malkin will return for the game on Wed vs the Devils. This could come at a better time. Hopefully this will give the Pens the much needed 2nd line scoring that they have missed in the first 4 games after getting nothing from Malone, LeClair, and a group of other that were on the line from time to time. It will also take some of the defensive pressure and allow Crosby to find some room to make plays because either one of them is going to do something. It could also give the Pens their third straight win against division foes. Also since it is not a Saturday game the Pens should come out with some energy and play well.

The countdown begins...
