Update: Jarome Iginla still unlikely for Sat.
Jarome Iginla - W - Pittsburgh Penguins
March 29, 2013 - 9:20 PM ET

Updating a previous note, Jarome Iginla is considered "unlikely to play for now" for Saturday, according tothe Pittsburgh Tribune-Review's Rob Russi.

The newest Penguin was supposed to arrive Friday night but immigration issues -- which are now resolved -- have delayed his arrival. RDS' Renaud Lavoie says he will join the team Saturday, though it's unclear exactly when. It sounds as if Saturday's start time was the standard 7 p.m. one, Iginla would have a chance of playing, but the 1 p.m. puck drop with the Islanders complicates matters. In all likelihood, the longtime member of the Flames will make his Penguins debut Tuesday.
