Bryan Rust - Remains day-to-day Rust (lower body) is still day-to-day in the lead-up to Opening Night against the Rangers on Wednesday, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports. Impact Rust appears to be in danger of missing the first game of the season, though he hasn't been officially ruled out yet. Based on practice lines, if Rust does miss out, Anthony Beauvillier will shift to the right side while Drew O'Connor fills the other first-line wing role. Having said that, once Rust is given the all-clear, he is a lock to move back onto Sidney Crosby's right side.
