Went to Pittsburgh to see the Penguins beat Montreal on Wednesday. Got home Thursday in time to see them beat the Islanders.

Then they lost in Dallas 3-0 (last time they got shut out by Dallas was a 0-0 tie in '98)

Watched my local AHL team, the Hershey Bears, win on Saturday and again tonight (beat the baby Pens 2-0) making it 8 straight home wins for the Bears.

All in all, it's been a great week for hockey!
