Rugged left winger Gary Roberts practiced with the Penguins yesterday and could play today in Game 5 against the Philadelphia Flyers. "My lungs are cleared up, so come [today] I'll take warmup and see how I feel," said Roberts, who missed Games 3 and 4 last week with a respiratory ailment that between those games was diagnosed with what he called "a minor case" of pneumonia. "I've been battling it for a while, for a few weeks, so I think the medication has started to help," he said. "I hadn't skated for four days, but my lungs felt better than they had the past few weeks."

A minor case of pneumonia...
In Roberts speak...that means he had double pneumonia complicated with a collasped lung and strep.

Sure do miss him when he isn't on the ice. Just his presence.........

"Minor case of pneumonia"? Must actually be bubonic plague, small pox, and ebola........
