BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Mike Vellucci didn't need much time to consider the question, to reflect on how he'd have preferred to see the game play out after watching his team of Penguins prospects score the first four goals against the Sabres' entry during a tournament at Harborcenter today.
And it wouldn't have been to have that lead melt away as it did, before the Penguins pulled out a 6-4 victory.
"We'd all rather win, 10-0," Vellucci said. "But from a learning (standpoint), it's a good lesson."
He got to see that his players, many of whom he will coach in Wilkes-Barre this winter, can overcome adversity, at least some of which was self-inflicted against the Sabres.
