Defenseman Kris Letang, injured late in the Penguins' 4-3 loss to Washington in Game 2 of their second-round playoff series in Washington last night, is questionable for Game 3 at Mellon Arena tomorrow night.
Letang was hurt when he was checked by Washington defenseman Mike Green with a little more than six minutes remaining. Letang appeared at first to have injured his shoulder, but that apparently was not the case, although the Penguins declined to offer specifics.
"It's a strength issue, not an injury issue," Coach Dan Bylsma said today.
He added that Letang was being examined today to determine the precise nature and severity of his condition.
More details in tomorrow's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
