Blügers will not accompany the “Penguins” team on the trip to Montreal

Due to an upper body injury, Blügers did not participate in the first two matches and will start the season later. On Saturday, he took part in ice practice and could be used against him in a contact game.

The Penguins will take on the local Canadiens in Montreal on Monday before returning to Pittsburgh to face the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday. “Penguins” head coach Mike Sullivan announced on Sunday that Bluger’s status is unchanged and he will not travel with the team to Montreal.

“Penguins” scored the maximum number of points or four in two matches.

In the NHL regular season, teams will play 82 games each.
