Comeau To Miss Several Weeks With Upper-Body Injury

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) –The injury list continues to grow for the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Winger Blake Comeau will miss several weeks with an upper-body injury, according to the Penguins.

Comeau suffered the injury in the third period of Monday's game against the Florida Panthers.

Comeau was hooked and crashed into the boards. He appeared to get his hands up in time to brace himself for impact. He left the game and did not return.

Following the team's 4-3 defeat against the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Penguins re-assigned Taylor Chorney, Dominik Uher and Jeff Zatkoff to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.

All three played in Tuesday night's game and it was Uher's NHL debut.
