William Nylander is questionable to play vs. the Penguins after missing Friday night's game due to illness. Max Domi's healthy scratch may extend to two games, after head coach Craig Berube did not guarantee his return to the lineup after the loss to Capitals.

"I have to look at the lineup and what is best for tonight (last night vs. Capitals). That is part of it. I talked to him about getting a reset. We will see about tomorrow, and if we get him back in," said Berube about scratching Max Domi.
