Rickard Rakell Will Not Return Saturday
11 months agoPittsburgh Penguins winger Rickard Rakell (upper body) won't return Saturday against the Toronto Maple Leafs after it originally appeared he would. Rakell has missed 11 games with an upper-body injury suffered November 19. After a brilliant campaign last year, Rakell has put up just four assists in 17 games so far this year. When he does return, he will likely get a chance to turn things around as part of the top line with Sidney Crosby and Jake Guentzel and get time on the top powerplay unit. He should be added in shallow and standard leagues where he was dropped to the waiver wire as he has the chance to be a solid contributor in both points and category leagues.
