Penguins' Derick Brassard: Not yet skating

Brassard (lower body) has not resumed skating since suffering his injury against Detroit on March 27.

Coach Mike Sullivan didn't provide a specific timeline for Brassard's recovery, but at this point, it seems unlikely he will be available for the Pens' final two regular-season games. The first official day of the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs is April 11, which gives the center a little over a week to get back to 100 percent. In the meantime, Riley Sheahan will take over the third-line center role while Josh Jooris fills out the lineup.
