6 years agoPittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin (upper body) is likely to miss a fourth consecutive game on Thursday against the Florida Panthers, although he will travel with the team. He has not practiced since suffering a upper-body injury in a showdown with the Tampa Bay Lightning on Jan. 30. While he was able to skate on his own on Tuesday before the team's practice, he continues to be considered day to day and is making progress according to head coach Mike Sullivan. Malkin has 14 goals and 55 points across 50 games. Keep him reserved in all fantasy leagues until he can officially return and play a full game without any setbacks.--Daniel Dobish
