It's beginning to look a lot like playoffs.

With the first round of the 2017 Stanley Cup Playoffs kicking off in less than a week, arena crew spent Saturday working on ice art to welcome the Pittsburgh Penguins to town for what will be just the sixth and seventh playoff games – and possibly more – in Nationwide Arena history.
