Penguins goalie Matt Murray to return from concussion

Penguins goaltender Matt Murray is ready to return from a concussion that's kept him out for the past three weeks.

Murray practiced with his teammates on Monday and will play Tuesday night when the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions visit the New York Islanders.

Murray hasn't played since taking a shot off his mask in practice late last month.

Pittsburgh has hung tough without Murray, who helped backstop the Penguins to consecutive Cups.

The Penguins trail first-place Washington by two points in the Metropolitan Division with 10 games left in the regular season.
