Penguins defenseman Kris Letang said today he will be able to play in Game 3 of the Penguins' second-round playoff series against Washington at Mellon Arena tonight.

Letang said the left-shoulder injury he received when hit by Capitals' defenseman Mike Green late in the Penguins' 4-3 loss in Game 2 Monday was diagnosed as a strain.

A decision on whether Letang dresses tonight will be made by coach Dan Bylsma, Letang said.

More details in tomorrow's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
