The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and Triumph Books have teamed up once more to produce a gem of a commemorative book. Striking Gold: The Penguins’ Amazing Run to the 2016 Stanley Cup expertly chronicles the Pittsburgh Penguins’ recent Stanley Cup season in a style that’s eye-catching, entertaining and informative.
Thanks to detailed game summaries, you’ll relive each compelling step of the team’s improbable trek to Stanley Cup glory. Striking Gold also features profiles on many of your favorite Pens—including Sidney Crosby, Pascal Dupuis, Marc-Andre Fleury and Matt Murray. Not to mention coach Sullivan.
A visual delight, Striking Gold is lavishly appointed with over 100 full-color photographs. The dynamic work of PG photographers Peter Diana, Bob Donaldson, Matt Freed and Michael Henninger is on full display, complete with frame-worthy shots of many of the season’s seminal moments. Topped by a print of the triumphant team photo and owner Mario Lemieux kissing the Cup.
Give Striking Gold a hearty “two thumbs up.” It’s a must-read…and must-have…for any true Penguins fan.
