PENS OPEN PLAYOFFS WITH OT WIN AGAINST HERSHEY

HERSHEY, PA – The playoffs are a time to suck it up, step up and perform. And Chris Minard stuck to that formula perfectly on Wednesday night.

The Penguins’ leading goal scorer during the regular season, Minard blasted a puck past goaltender Frederic Cassivi 4:52 into overtime to lead the Penguins to a 2-1 win against the Hershey Bears in Game One of the East Division Semifinals at the Giant Center. Games Two and Three take place in Wilkes-Barre on Saturday and Sunday.
