Pittsburgh, PA
Almost Game Time
An empty net sits on the ice just before the PIttsburgh Penguins take on the New York Islanders at Consol Energy Center in Pittsburgh on Saturday, March 30th 2013.
The Pens beat the Isles 2-0 and extended their winning streak to 15 games, just 3 shy of setting a new NHL record!hockeypenscecpenguinspittsburghnhlconsollogoicenetcreasenew yorkislanders
Crosby's Inside Edge
I took this photo when the Pens took on the Boston Bruins on March 17th, 2013 (hence the St. Patrick's Day practice jerseys). While taking some practice shots to check how fast my shutter speed could get I snapped this shot (this is cropped from a whole body shot of Sidney). Because of the blur, I was going to delete it, but then I saw I had pretty sharp focus on his right skate as it was cutting into the ice with the inside edge. When I cropped it in I ended up with this shot which I really like.Le Magnifique!
The Great Mario Lemieux now has his own statue sitting outside the main entrance of Consol Energy Center to symbolize his impact he has had (and still has) on both the Penguins as well as the City of Pittsburgh, while he was a player, and now as owner of the Pittsburgh Penguinsmariolemieuxle magnifiquehockeynhlpittsburghpenguinsconsol energy centerstatue
