Penguins' Filip Kral: Officially day-to-day

Kral was labeled day-to-day with a lower-body injury Wednesday, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.

Considering Kral had to be helped off the ice in Tuesday's preseason clash with the Sabres, the fact that he is considered day-to-day certainly seems to be good news. The 24-year-old defenseman was unlikely to make the Opening Night roster, but this injury will only serve to further cement his status as an AHL player to start the 2024-25 campaign.
