The Penguins have a full week of practice ahead of themselves before opening the season this Saturday at home against the Lehigh Valley Phantoms.
Today, the focus at the Toyota SportsPlex was 4-on-4 play as the team worked on that for most of the first half of practice. They also worked on another trouble area in the second half of the practice - face-offs.
Penguins development coach Mark Recchi was on the ice with the AHL Penguins today. He seemed to be having a lot of fun and enjoying his new role.
Jeff Zatkoff practiced in Wilkes-Barre today after clearing waivers and being re-assigned to the AHL Penguins over the weekend. Matt Murray and Eric Hartzell shared the other net at practice.
There weren't any formal line rushes, but here's who was working with who in the drills today.
