Archibald (lower body) logged a full practice Saturday, per Rob Rossi of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald logged his first full-contact practice since suffering a lower-body injury Dec. 18. The 30-year-old winger has missed the Penguins' last 14 contests. Archibald has four goals, two assists, and 109 hits in 30 games this season. He should return to a fourth-line role once healthy.

Archibald (lower body) practiced in a non-contract sweater Tuesday, Pens Inside Scoop reports but will make the trip for Wednesday's matchup with Ottawa.

EDGE Analysis

Considering Archibald hasn't been cleared for contact, he probably shouldn't be expected to play versus Ottawa on Wednesday, though he hasn't been officially ruled out. Even once given the green light, Archibald may have to serve as a healthy scratch periodically and could struggle to offer more than low-end fantasy value.

Archibald (lower body) is slated to miss Tuesday's game versus Vancouver, according to Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald was on the ice prior to Tuesday's practice. He has four goals and six points in 30 contests this season. The 30-year-old last played Dec. 18.

Archibald (lower body) was designated for injured reserve Wednesday retroactively to Dec. 18.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald has already missed the Penguins' last three contests and with his retroactive placement on IR can be activated as soon as cleared to play. With Archibald unavailable against the Red Wings on Wednesday, Drew O'Connor and Danton Heinen should continue to feature on the fourth line, though call-up Drake Caggiula could push for an opportunity.

Archibald (lower body) won't play Tuesday versus the Rangers, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald didn't take the ice for warmups, so he'll end up missing at least one game with the injury. The 30-year-old's next chance to play is Thursday versus the Hurricanes.

Archibald (lower body) is considered a game-time call versus the Rangers on Tuesday, Pens Inside Scoop reports.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald is currently mired in a 10-game pointless streak during which he has recorded just 11 shots and averaged a mere 9:38 of ice time. Even if the Saskatchewan native is cleared to play, he will likely remain in a fourth-line role, limiting his opportunities to offer more than low-end fantasy value.

Archibald suffered a lower-body injury that kept him out of practice Monday, Pens Inside Scoop reports.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald should probably be considered questionable at this point to suit up against the Rangers on Tuesday. If the winger does miss out, Drew O'Connor figures to step into a fourth-line role. For his part, the 30-year-old Archibald has six points in 30 games this year and is currently mired in a 10-game goal drought.

Archibald failed to record a point against Columbus on Tuesday, his fifth straight game without getting on the scoresheet.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald has logged less than 10 minutes of ice time in two of his last five outings, so his lack of offensive production shouldn't come as a shock. More of a defensive specialist, Archibald is averaging 1:47 of ice time on the penalty kill this year and figures to remain in that role long term, limiting his opportunities to provide fantasy production.

Archibald (undisclosed) will play Wednesday against Washington, per Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald missed Saturday's 3-2 loss to Seattle because of the injury. He's projected to play on the fourth line with Filip Hallander and Ryan Poehling on Wednesday. Jeff Carter (upper body) is also making his return for the Penguins. Samuel Poulin and Kasperi Kapanen are expected to be healthy scratches.

Archibald (undisclosed) will be a game-time call for Wednesday's matchup with Washington, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Even with Archibald healthy, he could still find himself watching from the sidelines if Jeff Carter (upper body) is also cleared to return. Prior to getting hurt, Archibald scored a goal in back-to-back games, though that didn't stop the Penguins from falling into a seven-game losing streak. If he does play, Archibald should be expected to fill a bottom-six role.
