The
Pittsburgh Penguins played a very strong game and won the first leg of their indoor/outdoor back-to-back series against Buffalo Saturday night as they shut out the Sabres 2-0. Despite the win, the Penguins suffered a loss in the 2nd period. After being honored by Ray Shero at the beginning of the game for scoring 900-points in his NHL career,
Gary Roberts left the ice midway through the 2nd period with a broken leg (fibula) after Buffalo's
