Penguins lose in OT to Vancouver
I started to write this morning how I remembered the first Penguins’ game that I saw live at the Civic Arena, way back on November 7, 1971. I was going to start off remaining like this because, I had the opportunity to take my 10 year old son, Michael, to his first Penguin’s game last night (Thanks to our own Phil Krundel). However, as I started to write about that first experience, I decided to double check my facts. I am glad I did. Wow, my memory is faulty. I seemed to have blocked out the fact that the Penguins lost. The Chicago Blackhawks were the team that ruined a great story for me. In my mind, my favorite players were the stars.
