Jake Guentzel Misses Friday's Practice
2 years agoPittsburgh Penguins winger Jake Guentzel wasn't on the ice in Friday's practice after getting hurt late on in Thursday's 6-1 demolition job against the Kings. He scored the team's second goal in the big victory, moving on to three goals and two assists for the season. The 28-year-old is off to a very impressive start to the season and it would be a shame if he's forced to miss time. The Penguins have announced that Guenzel is joining the traveling party for a five-game road trip that kicks off Saturday in Columbus, which suggests that he isn't very seriously hurt, but it's unknown if he can play against the Blue Jackets. Danton Heinen filled Guentzel's spot on the top line in practice and his fantasy stock gets a big boost if his teammate can't go Saturday.
