Members of Penguins' 2009 Stanley Cup team relish reunion

Marc-Andre Fleury remembers not being able to look at the Joe Louis Arena clock, which felt like it was moving at a glacial pace. Sidney Crosby recalls the agony of not being able to be on the ice for the final seconds, sidelined with an injury. Matt Cooke thinks back to the ecstasy of when the clock hit zero, jumping over the boards the instant the final horn sounded.

The players involved all have different memories that stand out from the Penguins’ 2009 Stanley Cup championship, but that victory and title run forever linked the players on the ice and on the bench that night in Detroit.
