Penguins look to make 'positive impact' with Pride Game
Thursday's game against the Blues will be the Penguins' annual Pride Game, with the organization aiming to celebrate the principles of "teamwork, inclusion, respect, and acceptance."
Mike Sullivan said this morning that nights like these "speak volumes for what the Penguins represent, and that's inclusivity."
"You know, we live in a polarizing world," Sullivan continued. "For the Penguins organization and our players to utilize the platform that we have for the right reasons, I think it's a good thing, and I think our guys take it seriously. They're always looking to find ways to make a positive impact on our community. That's one of the privileges that we have with the platform that we have, and tonight is a night that is an indication of that. So we'll celebrate that. That's what I think is important."
