JEFF PETRY NEWS

Game-time call Tuesday Petry (upper body) will be a game-time decision ahead of Tuesday's matchup with Detroit, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.

Impact Petry has missed the last five games due to his upper-body issue but appears to be nearing a return to action. With Marcus Pettersson (lower body), Dmitry Kulikov (lower body) and Jan Rutta (lower body) all still sidelined, the Penguins could certainly use some reinforcements on the blue line. Whenever Petry is cleared to return, he figures to slot into a top-four pairing in addition to joining the No. 2 power-play unit.

Traveling with team Petry (upper body) is with the Penguins for their two-game road trip, Rob Rossi of The Athletic reports Tuesday.

Impact Petry's potential return would be a huge boost for the Penguins' blue line, which is still without Marcus Pettersson (lower body), Jan Rutta (lower body) and Dmitry Kulikov (lower body). If Petry is cleared to play against Colorado or Dallas on Wednesday or Thursday, respectively, he figures to be a near-lock for the No. 2 power-play unit.
