Rob Scuderi's nose is in mid-playoff form.

Scuderi left Thursday's Game 1 against the New York Rangers in the third period after he was hit in the face by Kevin Hayes's stick on a follow-through. The Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman returned later in the period sporting some fresh stitches and a generally more-intimidating mug.
