Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Brooks Orpik has donated 15 sets of OneGoal starter hockey equipment to Pittsburgh's inner-city "Hockey in the Hood" program.
Each player attending the U.S. Olympic Men's Hockey Orientation Camp this week in Woodbridge, Ill. will donate 15 sets of equipment to the youth organization of his choice. The equipment was purchased by the National Hockey League Players Association through its "Goals & Dreams" fund, in cooperation with USA Hockey and OneGoal.
