Head Coach Mike Sullivan has a lot of different things to consider with the lineup as the Penguins head into a Canadian road trip starting with the Winnipeg Jets.
Sullivan has a lot on his plate when it comes to coaching the Pittsburgh Penguins. And it is not just the goaltender situation. With Alex Nedeljkovic feeling good again Sullivan is deciding if he wants to bring three goaltenders on this road trip.
But, in addition to that, there seems to be some uncertainty with the starting forwards for the game as well. It looks like the full lineup for the team heading into today's game is still up for debate.
Puljujarvi has also been playing well and earned his spot over rookie Rutger McGroarty who is down playing with the AHL affiliate Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.
When Mike Sullivan was asked further about the lineup going into the game today, he said that performance does make a difference.
With the Penguins taking on an undefeated Winnipeg team, Sullivan is looking to put out his best lines and team that he can to try to hand the Jets their first loss of the season.
We will see who is on the ice for the Penguins today when they battle the Jets at 3pm EST.
