Penguins' Sidney Crosby, Conor Sheary diagnosed with concussions

Penguins center Sidney Crosby and winger Conor Sheary have been diagnosed with concussions, coach Mike Sullivan said Tuesday.

Sullivan said Crosby will sit out Game 4 in the Penguins' second-round playoff series against Washington Wednesday night and will be treated on a day-to-day basis after that.

Crosby was injured when Capitals defenseman Matt Niskanen cross-checked him in the head in the first period of the Penguins' 3-2 overtime loss Monday night.

Niskanen was assessed a major penalty and game misconduct but was not given supplemental discipline by the league office.

Sheary was injured when teammate Patric Hornqvist ran into him during Game 3.
