It’s all about Kris Letang in this one. The Penguins’ honor their best defensemen ever with a Rolex pre-game and all the players wear the No. 58 for warmups to celebrate his 1,000th game.

There’s a touching video tribute, Letang’s family is on the ice where he is presented with the customary silver stick, and also a pair of mini silver sticks for his family. Alex Letang reads off the starting lineup and joins dear old dad at the blueline for the anthem.
