Big Pens news for tonight...

It appears Sid the Kid will miss tonight's game with the groin injury he aggravated in practice. Early reports had Sid in the lineup, but a groin injury is not something you want to mess with. Thank god it's only the Isles tonight (yes, I know it's the same Isles that beat the Pens in OT last week. But they did lose two of their top players in Mr. Hillary Duff and Chris Campoli last week in a trade with the Sens.) Time for Geno to take the Jag and carry the team once again.
And to make matters worse (well, actually it might be a blessing in disguise) Ryan Whitney has left the team temporarily to return home to family matters. This opens the door for the triumphant return of Kris Letang to the lineup tonight. I'm predicting big things for The Orange Drink tonight. No word on what Whitney is dealing with, it could be a bruised ego from all the "Whitney Sucks!" chants he's heard over the past month.
