Wilkes-Barre mayor-elect Tony George announces transition team

No. 5 Notre Dame looking to be aggressive

<p>Conor Sheary briefly acknowledged the personal success that allowed him to earn the AHL&#8217;s Player of the Week honor, but he was more willing to put credit elsewhere.</p><p>Sheary wrapped up a productive weekend, twice registered four points in a game for a total of one goal and seven assists. He had a goal and three assists in Friday&#8217;s 7-0 win over Hershey, and after being held scoreless on Saturday Sheary got back on the score sheet with four assists in Sunday&#8217;s win over Hartford.</p><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a pretty cool honor,&#8221; Sheary said, acknowledging the work of linemates Scott Wilson and Kael Mouillierat. &#8220;As a line we had a good weekend overall and as a team getting three (wins) in three nights is a difficult task.&#8221;</p><p>Sheary is now tied for third in the league with 12 assists and has 14 points in 13 games. Overall, the Penguins offense has produced 56 goals &#8211; second-best in the AHL.</p><p>Sheary said chemistry is what is enabling his line to produce, while depth has benefited the team&#8217;s overall offense.</p><p>&#8220;We have four lines that can all score,&#8221; Sheary said. &#8220;It&#8217;s a matter of who&#8217;s going to put up the points. We proved we can win with other lines scoring.&#8221;</p><p><strong>Kuhnhackl update</strong></p><p>F Tom Kuhnhackl sustained a finger injury resulting from a slash during Sunday&#8217;s game in Hartford. Head coach Mike Sullivan said Kuhnhackl won&#8217;t be sidelined long-term and estimated he will be out 10 days, depending on how he responds to treatment during the week.</p><p>Sullivan has no plans to ask the league to review the play that resulted in Kuhnhackl&#8217;s injury. As far as a replacement, Sullivan is taking a wait-and-see approach. With the Penguins off until Friday, Sullivan said forwards Tom Sestito and Matia Marcantuoni are making progress with their injuries and may be able to return to the lineup.</p><style>
