Shortly after 7 a.m. this morning, the official clock mounted in the stands overlooking center ice hit 10 days, 10 hours, 3 minutes and 21 seconds. At that point, the forty guys comprising the two teams of the 11-Day Power Play had a new unofficial Guinness World Record for playing the world’s longest continuous hockey game.
Fans stood and cheered, then play stopped briefly as players hugged on the benches and on the ice. The moment was more than a year in the making.
