Penguins Lose Dumoulin For At Least 8 Weeks

PITTSBURGH (AP) – The Pittsburgh Penguins will be without defenseman Brian Dumoulin for at least eight weeks after he underwent left ankle surgery. Dumoulin left Saturday night’s 5-2 loss to St. Louis in the first period with what the team termed a lower-body injury. General manager Jim Rutherford said surgeons repaired lacerated tendons in Dumoulin’s left ankle. Dumoulin has one goal and six assists in 23 games with the Penguins. He missed four games earlier in the season with an unspecified lower-body injury.
