Bad News For Ludvig

The Pittsburgh Penguins gave an update today about defenseman John Ludvig who was injured in a game against the Dallas Stars. The update confirms what many had thought was the outcome.

Coach Sullivan on the status of John Ludvig: «He's been diagnosed with a concussion. We will see how that goes, I'm not sure I can give you a status other than that.»

Ludvig is dealing with a concussion which can be an unpredictable injury. A timetable was not set by the Penguins. It is good to know that there were no more severe injuries beyond Ludvig's concussion. Hopefully, he can get back on the ice and contribute soon.

The Penguins will face off against the Colorado Avalanche tomorrow.
