Guentzel rotated on the fourth line during Sunday's practice, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
After potting an NHL-leading nine goals through the first 11 games of the playoffs, the rookie's gone ice cold. Guentzel hasn't scored in eight games, chipping in with only three assists. Whether he's hitting a wall or nursing an undisclosed injury, it wouldn't be surprising to see the Pens bench Guentzel on Monday, especially with Patric Hornqvist (upper body) nearing a return.
