Dupuis, who saw 12:43 of ice time in his return, skated with Sidney Crosby and Phil Kessel during Friday's practice, Dave Molinari of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

The winger went pointless Thursday in a 4-1 loss and bounced around the lines, moving up with Crosby for the third period. Dupuis also led the team in short-handed ice time (2:09). Perhaps most importantly, he suffered no setbacks in his first NHL action since last November. Look for a half-point per-game scoring pace going forward from the 36-year-old.
