The Pittsburgh Penguins' schedule has not been particularly kind to them or their growing injury list, but it hasn't gotten in the way of them climbing up the Eastern Conference standings.
The Penguins returned east after a 3-0-1 trip through western Canada and will make a final stop in Philadelphia to face the free-falling Flyers on Wednesday night.
Defenseman Mark Streit, acquired from the Flyers via the Tampa Bay Lightning at the NHL trade deadline, became the latest Penguins player to hit the injured list when he suffered a lower-body injury while blocking a shot in Monday night's 4-3 shootout loss to the Flames, who won their 10th straight.
