Charles LeClaire / USA Today Sports

Justin Schultz is back in the Pittsburgh Penguins' lineup for Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Final against the Ottawa Senators.

Penguins forward Patric Hornqvist took part in the pregame warmup but wasn't listed in the lineup.

Schultz hadn't played since he was hurt in Game 2 of the series, when he fell awkwardly into the boards following a hit by Ottawa forward Mike Hoffman midway through the first period.

Hornqvist hasn't played since Game 1 of the series on May 13.

Both players were game-time decisions for Game 7.

Penguins forward Conor Sheary returned to the lineup Thursday night after missing Games 5 and 6.
