Talbot Could Return To Lineup Sunday

Talbot Max could be back.
Penguins center Maxime Talbot could return to Pittsburgh’s lineup on Sunday for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Flyers at Mellon Arena.

Talbot injured his foot blocking a shot against the Rangers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. He missed the final two games of that series and Game 1 against Philadelphia.

The energetic and scrappy Talbot returned to practice Saturday with his teammates, which was a positive sign for the Penguins on his potential return to the lineup.

“We'll see [Sunday]. He looked pretty good [Saturday],” Penguins coach Michel Therrien said. “We'll go through the morning skate and make a decision. We're going to sit down with him and see how he feels. But it's nice to see him back practicing with the boys.”

Удачи

"He's scoring a lot of goals and can do it in so many way," Flyers goalie Martin Biron said. "He comes on the wing and down the middle on shorthanded and power-play situations. He's good at any situation. You see when he has the puck and he gets going, it fuels their team. So for us, it's a big challenge to stop a guy like him and take some momentum away from their team."
