The Pittsburgh Penguins came away with a big 3-2 victory over the San Jose Sharks in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final, but it came at a price.
Playoff sensation Bryan Rust left Monday's game after a high hit from Sharks forward Patrick Marleau, and is listed as day to day with an upper body injury.
Penguins coach Mike Sullivan was less than enthused about the collision.
Bryan Rust listed as day-to-day. Mike Sullivan: "It's a blindside hit to the head."
