OTTAWA, Ontario — Penguins forwards Bryan Rust and Patric Hornqvist and defenseman Justin Schultz will miss Game 3 of the Eastern Conference final on Wednesday with upper-body injuries.
All three skated on their own, before the Penguins held their game day skate at the University of Ottawa’s Minto Sports Complex. Game-time against the Senators is 8:10 p.m., at Canadian Tire Centre.
It appears the Penguins will welcome defenseman Trevor Daley back to the lineup. He took the gameday skate and worked on a defense pairing with Olli Maatta.
It also looks like the Penguins will utilize an 11-forward, seven-defenseman configuration, as defenseman Mark Streit quarterbacked the top power play.
