It’s a good news/bad news situation for two key Pittsburgh Penguins defensemen who struggle to stay healthy.
The bad: Kris Letang cannot play against the Los Angeles Kings this late afternoon.
The good: Olli Maatta is back in the lineup, however.
This situation may require some tinkering.
Per #Pens Coach Johnston, Kris Letang is out, and Olli Maatta is in. D pairs may fluctuate.

The Penguins didn’t reveal what, exactly, is ailing Letang. It sounds like it’s a little touch-and-go at the moment.
Johnston on Letang: "Well see how he is over the next couple of days."
