Mike Ashmore's NHL Tour - Stop #2 - East Rutherford, NJ.  The Pictures January 7, 2004

Plenty of good seats were still available to see J.S. Aubin and the Penguins take on the defending Stanley Cup Champion New Jersey Devils. Below, the man mountain that is Steve McKenna clears some pucks out from inside the net.

Sebastien Caron finds a nice comfy spot by the bench, which is where he spent the game.

Not entirely sure what I was going for in this shot, but I do like it.  Not entirely sure of why on that, either.

Jean-Sebastien Aubin in action during warmups.

Taking a shot of someone you know you'll never see play sure is a blast.  Ari Ahonen, a Devils First Round Pick a few years back, will be collecting splinters in his butt backing up Martin Brodeur until Corey Schwab gets done pulling his splinters out...in which case Ari goes back to Albany still with no NHL experience.

Former Hobey Baker Award winner Brian Holzinger skates along with Milan Kraft and Sebastien Caron before the game.

Here's my man, S-Bass.  Caron prepares for 60 minutes on the bench.

Yeah, I like Caron.

Matt Bradley fires one in on Aubin in warmups.

Aubin sticks aside another shot.
