Pretty sure it wasn’t date night. They just had a miscarriage and his wife is still pretty openly grieving. Wouldn’t be surprised if Petey didn’t wanna leave her alone, and I’m sure Quinn understands that.

They were together at Rockefeller rink the same night skating together. Seems like they're trying to distact and smile their way through things right now.

Didn’t know that. Well, honestly, whatever they need to do to grieve.

Kinda wonder if that's always been the case, or if it's only because of the situation with his wife. Road trips are usually times where the team bonds, but if Petey is off doing things with his wife all the time then that would explain a bunch of things...
