Five players made the short trek to the Kaufmann Center to give out free turkeys and vegetables to 100 families.

“I think it is very important for the Penguins to continue this. This is their backyard,” said Karen Bullock, of Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank.

The event was held in partnership with the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank.
