Pittsburgh Penguins center Jordan Staal will return to the lineup for Saturday's game against the Winnipeg Jets.

Staal has been sidelined with a left knee injury since Jan. 6. He was injured on a knee-on-knee hit from New York Rangers veteran Mike Rupp.

The 23-year-old Staal has collected 15 goals and six assists in 34 games this season. His tallies are still good enough to rank him third on the club, despite missing 15 contests due to the injury.
