Earlier today, before Game 5 of their Eastern Conference Final series against the Lightning, Pittsburgh Penguins head coach Mike Sullivan announced defenseman Trevor Daley will miss the rest of the postseason with a broken ankle. Daley sustained the injury during the Penguins Game 4 loss to the Lightning on Friday.

Daley, a 32 year old left shoot defenseman, was an important part of the Penguins blue line. He began the season with the Chicago Blackhawks, where he scored no goals and six assists in 29 games. Unhappy with his role in Chicago, Daley requested a trade, which he got on December 14th when he was dealt to Pittsburgh in exchange for Rob Scuderi. Daley took off in Pittsburgh, scoring 22 points in 53 regular season games for the Penguins. In the playoffs, Daley scored one goal and five assists in 15 games for the Penguins.
