Bennett will be back on saturday, so the Pens will not rush bringing Neal back. There´s no official word, but i guess he will be out for another two weeks.

Neal is slotting in with fourth line at #Penguins practice and is flying.
i would bet he'll slot in sometime next week either NJ or NSH. pure speculations of course
looking good guys
penguins:Today was #Pens Neal's first full practice. Cleared for everything. Stayed on ice after to work on taking contact.
we are getting closer, finally.

Neal predicted he needs another good week of skating/practice. #Penguins
Pittsburgh only has a game against the Blues on Saturday this week and then they're off until next Wednesday when they play against the Flyers. Plenty of time to practice before that so an optimistic guess would be that he's a possibility against Philly. If not then against the Predators on next Friday.

more good news,
Bylsma doesn't usually have guys who aren't very close to returning working on the top unit. Letang for instance didn't work with the top unit in practice till his return was imminent.Pens Inside Scoop @PensInsideScoop 3m
