Penguins' Jokinen loves catching playoff action

Players of teams currently in the playoffs obviously have a focus on their own series, but in their downtime many seem to remain passionate hockey fans to the core.

“This time of the year, it’s fun to just put the TV on and watch whatever game comes up,” Penguins forward Jussi Jokinen said, via The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. “There are so many good teams. This is the best time for fans, and even us, as hockey players, when we’re not playing to watch hockey.”

Count Beau Bennett in as well.

“The two I’ve probably enjoyed watching the most were Boston-Detroit and St. Louis-Chicago,” winger Beau Bennett said. “I know how hard those guys play each other. This time of year, playoff time, every game is fun to watch, but those two in particular are really awesome.”
