Coach Mike Johnston said some of the feeling has returned to Dupuis's arm, which had gone numb after being cross-checked by Alex Goligoski on Thursday, Dave Molinari of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. It's possible Dupuis suffered some sort of nerve injury, but the Penguins coach gave no further information on the 35-year-old forward. Dupuis, who played in only 39 games last season due to a knee injury, will almost surely miss Saturday's game (and perhaps more time) though the severity of Thursday's ailment remains unknown.
