Pat Burns Arena Raises $1 Million

As a sure sign of outpouring respect, the Pat Burns Memorial Arena announced that it has reached $1 million in donations.

Items put up in a silent auction included one of Sidney Crosby's jerseys from the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver as well as two signed Pittsburgh Penguins jerseys.

It is because of lots of hockey fans that this achievement can be a true sign of respect for a man who fought bravely in a battle with cancer.
