Kunitz (lower body) took the ice for pregame warmups and will play Saturday against the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Kunitz missed the team's last six games as he nursed an ailment to his lower body but it appears he's set to return to NHL action. The 37-year-old left winger tallied nine points in the 11 games prior to his injury. He'll join a line with Evgeni Malkin and Phil Kessel against the Red Wings' 14th-ranked defense (2.54 GA/GP).
