Penguins Practice: Bunting Missing; Imama Participates

With three straight losses in four days coming out of the 4 Nations Face-Off break, including a potentially demoralizing 6-1 loss Tuesday at Philadelphia, the Pittsburgh Penguins held their first full (non-game-day skate) practice since before the break Wednesday at the UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex.

With a rematch against the Flyers looming Thursday at home, the Penguins had nearly a full contingent of players.

Only forward Michael Bunting was missing.

We hope to get an update after the workout.

Forward Boko Imama, who is on IR because of an unspecified injury, joined the team for practice in a regular (perhaps contact allowed) jersey.

Its believed that Imama, a gritty forward, could come off IR at any time.

He could be someone the Penguins want to dress Thursday against the Flyers if he is able to play.
