Pens D-man Daley out of Game 6 with injury

PITTSBURGH -- The Penguins will be without veteran defenseman Trevor Daley for Game 6 against the Washington Capitals on Monday because of a lower-body injury, coach Mike Sullivan said.

Daley didn't participate in the morning skate. He played only 11:09 in Game 5 against the Capitals, a 4-2 Penguins loss that pulled Washington within 3-2 in the series.

According to Sullivan, Daley is day to day.

Defensemen Chad Ruhwedel and Mark Streit are the top candidates to replace Daley in the lineup.
