Charles LeClaire / USA TODAY Sports
Pittsburgh Penguins winger James Neal has been diagnosed with a concussion and is out of the lineup indefinitely.
Neal missed a pair of Penguins practices this week, the first of which was described as a maintenance day. According to Penguins head coach Dan Bylsma, Neal met with doctors on Thursday and was diagnosed with the head injury.
Neal has scored a goal every two games this season (22 goals in 44 games played), a rate which would lead the team.
