Sean Couturier is being considered a “game-time decision” for this one, per Dave Hakstol. The lines below are the ones run on Thursday without him; who knows what they’ll be if he’s in. (There are also some guesses made regarding healthy scratches given that some of Thursday’s lines ran with four skaters.) Robert Hagg, meanwhile, will likely draw in for the first playoff game of his career, as Travis Sanheim is expected to take a seat for this one.
Patric Hornqvist, meanwhile, remains out for the Penguins.
