A quick update from practice:
= Coach Dan Bylsma will provide more details after practice, but GM Ray Shero said today he expects D Brooks Orpik to “be out a while,” adding that “we expect him back this season.” Orpik injured his right arm — likes his hand — when he absorbed a shot from Sharks C Patrick Marleau Wednesday night in a home overtime loss.
= Cs Mark Letestu (left knee) and Dustin Jeffrey (lower body) returned to practice, along with D Paul Martin. With Orpik out, Martin was paired with D Kris Letang.
= LW Chris Kunitz (lower body injury) was on the ice in pads for about 60 minutes before practice, but he did not work out with teammates.

Rob, just seen the Kovy Trade what are your thoughts and any truth that the Pens are intrested in Arnott? TSN said they thought he was a good fit and on the Pen’s radar.
By the way I think the Kovalev trade will really help the PP, he stills plays the point on PP right?
