Petry (upper body) will return to the lineup Tuesday versus the Red Wings, Penguins radio play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.

EDGE Analysis

Petry missed the last five games with the injury, but his return should bolster the Penguins' defense corps. The 35-year-old is set to play on the second pairing and second power-play unit, which will likely cause Pierre-Olivier Joseph to lose some playing time.

Petry (upper body) will be a game-time decision ahead of Tuesday's matchup with Detroit, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Petry has missed the last five games due to his upper-body issue but appears to be nearing a return to action. With Marcus Pettersson (lower body), Dmitry Kulikov (lower body) and Jan Rutta (lower body) all still sidelined, the Penguins could certainly use some reinforcements on the blue line. Whenever Petry is cleared to return, he figures to slot into a top-four role in addition to joining the No. 2 power-play unit.

Petry (upper body) is with the Penguins for their two-game road trip, Rob Rossi of The Athletic reports Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Petry's potential return would be a huge boost for the Penguins' blue line, which is still without Marcus Pettersson (lower body), Jan Rutta (lower body) and Dmitry Kulikov (lower body). If Petry is cleared to play against Colorado or Dallas on Wednesday or Thursday, respectively, he figures to be a near-lock for the No. 2 power-play unit.

Petry (upper body) is considered day-to-day and will miss out against Ottawa on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Petry will be shelved for the second straight game due to his upper-body injury but may not be out long-term.

Taylor Fedun will suit up versus the Senators on Monday but could be dropped from the lineup once Petry is cleared to play.

EDGE Analysis

Petry took a hit from Tyler Motte early in the first period and wasn't able to return to the game. He also left the Penguins' previous game early, so there's some overall concern about wear and tear. If he can't play in Saturday's rematch with the Rangers, Chad Ruhwedel would likely join the lineup.
