Penguins' Bennett showing symptoms of mumps virus
Winslow Townson / USA TODAY Sports
Pittsburgh Penguins forward Beau Bennett is suffering from symptoms of the mumps virus and currently in quarantine, the team announced Monday.
Penguins captain Sidney Crosby was diagnosed with the contagious viral illness this past weekend.
If Bennett does indeed have the virus, it will just be another bump in a long line of setbacks for the oft-injured Penguin. He has missed significant time each season since turning pro.
