Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang is nursing an upper-body injury and will sit out Friday's contest against the Los Angeles Kings, coach Mike Johnston announced.
Blue-liner Rob Scuderi is expected to enter the lineup in place of Letang, who returned from a two-game absence to log 22:51 of ice time in Wednesday's 4-2 victory over the Colorado Avalanche.
The 28-year-old Letang missed the previous contests - including a 5-3 setback to Los Angeles on Saturday - with an undisclosed injury.
