EN commenter "War Penguin" took in some Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins action this weekend -Saturday against Bridgeport and Sunday against Binghamton - and was kind enough to send some pictures our way:
-This is a name for one of the team stores at Wachovia Arena:
-A banner for Mario Lemieux:
-Warm ups:
-Ben Lovejoy warming up:
-Pregame display:
-Chris Minard:
-Konstantin Koltsov Christmas jersey:
(EN: It's still stunning to us that the first thing we thought of when we first saw Evgeni Malkin in a Penguins' jersey on the ice was, "That's Koltsov's number.")
-Jeff Taffe winning a faceoff:
-Some teams at several levels have a display bin filled with hats collected from hat trick celebrations. This was a hat in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton's display:
-An off-ice official's computer which might've been used as a prop in "Revenge of the Nerds:"
-Luca Caputi pretending to be a seal. Or warming up. One or the other:
-The glass there is really scratched up:
-An off-ice official is apparently a Texas fan. Or metal. One or the other:
-There's something a little off with this official's computer:
-Bill Thomas coming out as a third star:
