Pittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin will miss Tuesday night's game in New Jersey, but coach Mike Johnston says Malkin could be available later this week. The NHL's sixth-leading scorer left Saturday's loss to Boston in the first period with a lower-body injury, and missed Sunday's lopsided defeat to Detroit. Pittsburgh begins a three-game road swing Tuesday against the Devils. Johnston says there's a strong chance Malkin could rejoin the team in time for Thursday's game in Dallas or Saturday's visit to Arizona.
