Once upon a time, there was a dynasty of hockey playing penguins who loved to compete. They practiced every day to reach their goal of becoming the best hockey team in the world. During a playoff game, the penguins' important goalie was feeling down because he had never received a puck. But, that all changed in the next play when he made an incredible save and finally received a puck! He was so happy that he continued to make amazing saves, leading the penguins to victory. The end.
