Letang Fully Cleared

Kris Letang is returning to the Penguins! Although he will not play in tomorrows game, get ready to (hopefully) see #58 in a huge divisional game against the Rags this Thursday.

I read that he is cleared for contact in practice. I also read somewhere that he might not actually play a game until after the NHL All-star break. Regardless I think we all welcome ball Letanf!

Unlike Crosby, Letang didn’t do the practice without contact step in efforts to return. He has however been skating since January 6th and more recently taking part in rigorous on-ice workouts. Rob Rossi just tweeted that he could see game action before the allstar break.

Praise Tebow!

Good news on the injury front

The glare of the spotlight is harsh, and the pressure that success breeds immense. We revere our heroes, but expect much. And criticism can come as easily as praise.

individual differences

My understanding is that Letang didn’t have the lingering symptoms that Crosby has experienced. As such, once he’d healed up, it was just a question of getting back up to game speed.

Anyways, it’s great news. Welcome back Kris!

So so so happy to read this. I’m just praying he doesn’t take any big hits the rest of the year. The more time without a big hit, the better.

Let's grind these bitches down!
