Cullen (illness) will be in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Cullen missed Tuesday's practice due to an illness, but the veteran pivot was able to participate in Wednesday's morning skate, and he was never in serious danger of missing Pittsburgh's meeting with Chicago. The American forward will slot into a bottom-six role against the Blackhawks, centering Tom Kuhnhackl and Oskar Sundqvist on the Penguins' fourth line, but he should also see time on the man advantage as a member of Pittsburgh's second power-play unit Wednesday evening.
