10-19-08: 5-4 WIN vs. Hershey Bears
October 21, 2008The team really stepped up this time, and took advantage of a sluggish Hershey squad who was finishing up a 3-in-3 to hold onto the 5-4 win in Hershey. Despite just being 2 points, this win helped to solidify the team into a family, a theme that carried the Pens deep into the playoffs last year.
Stone vs. Giroux
Stone gets the Gordie Howe hat trick in this one!
I will call this a draw, but let me know your thoughts. Giroux’s only real punch came while Stone had his gloves on and his stick in his hands. Giroux does get the nice takedown in lieu of fighting. Giroux also was called for an instigator on this one.
