Aaron Rodgers and his Pittsburgh Steelers teammates enjoyed a boys' night out on Tuesday as they watched the city's NHL team in action.
The 41-year-old quarterback looked to have moved on from Thursday night's defeat by the Cincinnati Bengals and was all smiles as the Pittsburgh Penguins took to the ice.
Rodgers and some past and present Steelers players took part in the traditional pre-game rally cry before watching the Penguins dominate the Vancouver Canucks 5-1.
They were also seen in a suite during the game, celebrating goals and sharing jokes among themselves. The group then posed for pictures with fans afterwards.
But there was still no sign of Rodgers' enigmatic wife with fans still confused about her whereabouts.
Rodgers dropped a bombshell during the summer when he revealed in June that he had tied the knot 'a couple of months ago' to a woman who is only known by her first name, Brittani.

The four-time MVP had been seen wearing a black ring but details of his new partner and their wedding have remained hidden ever since. The couple have never been photographed in public together and her presence at any of his games has not been made public.
Rodgers' performance in the prime time showdown on Thursday night led fans to speculate about the marriage once again.
One posted: 'How has no one found out about Aaron Rodgers wife yet? It's impossible to not know anything about anyone these days.'
Another account posted a picture of an empty chair in front of a TV screen with the caption: 'Aaron Rodgers' wife watching the game'.
During an interview at Steelers training camp, the quarterback did not refer to his wife by name. But he did lift the lid on his new life as a married man.
'When you meet the right one and you're with the right one, your whole world changes in a second,' Rodgers told NFL Network.
'And to have that person that unconditionally loves you behind the scenes, there's no better feeling in the world and I have the most incredible wife.
'I just really love her and I'm so thankful to have her by my side at the end. When you have that stability and that rock behind you at the house, you feel like you can do anything.'

Rodgers revealed back in December that he was in a relationship with a woman named 'Brittani', and that she did not have any social media. Since then, however, the quarterback has refused to shed much light on his new partner.
The secrecy has sparked conspiracy theories that the marriage could be a hoax. Even his family was said to be questioning whether the wedding took place.
But the quarterback slammed his doubters in a furious tirade about their right to a private life.
'It's a sick society, isn't it? I lived in the public eye for 20 years, I had public relationships,' he told The Pat McAfee show, referring to his past high-profile romances with the likes of actress Shailene Woodley and NASCAR star Danica Patrick.
'How did that work out? I had people leaking my home information, and making up stories, I had people calling the paparazzi, I had people posting my personal life on the internet. I didn't want that, didn't like any of that.
'Now I'm with someone who's private who doesn't want to be in the public eye, didn't sign up to be in the public eye, doesn't want to be a celebrity.
'And because I do things in private because I want my personal life to be private, I'm now weird and have the paparazzi stalking me.'
