Penguins Fall to Admirals

The Penguins took a trip to Norfolk amongst all this snow we have been having to take on the Admirals at the Scope in Norfolk. It didn't turn out to be a happy trip for the boys to say the least. Every time the Pens would catch up to the Admirals they would pull away.

The second frame was no goo either but the redeeming factor would be nobody scored. The third saw the Pens even it up at three all but the Ads scored on the PP to make it 4-3 then as the clock was ticking down and the Pens net was empty the Admirals drew a penalty and were awarded the empty net goal making it 5-3.

On a better note Eric Tangradi celebrated if you want to call it that his 21st birthday last night.
