Senators brace for banged-up Penguins

OTTAWA -- The injuries keep piling up for the Pittsburgh Penguins, turning their defensive corps into a black and blue line.

The defending Stanley Cup champions lost the third of their top three defensemen when Justin Schultz joined Kris Letang and Trevor Daley on the sidelines with a shoulder injury in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Final against the Ottawa Senators.

Mark Streit, 39, is his anticipated replacement for Game 3 at Canadian Tire Centre on Wednesday.

The best-of-seven series is tied 1-1.
