The Pittsburgh Penguins secured a victory against the Columbus Blue Jackets, but it came with a setback as forward Drew O’Connor exited the game in the second period and was later diagnosed with a concussion. O’Connor, who recently transitioned to the third-line center, has been instrumental in the Penguins’ success this season, achieving career-high stats with nine goals and 12 assists in 59 games. Despite the uncertainty surrounding his return, O’Connor’s absence poses a significant challenge for the Penguins, given his stellar performance and versatility on the ice.
