Kris Letang gets a ‘maintenance’ off day from practice
Posted from TribLive:
After recording two blocked shots during Wednesday’s 3-2 overtime loss to the Boston Bruins — at least one left him in noticeable pain — Penguins defenseman Kris Letang missed practice Thursday at Southpointe.
“We kept Kris off the ice today, a little bit of a maintenance day,” coach Mike Johnston said. “He should be fine.”
