It's make or break for the Pens. Their season is either over tonight or they steal 2 points and move forward. Sid should have a strong game.

Well as we know the Penguins lost so I will focus on the rest. Of course Malkin looks human, he is human. Come on even the Russian Olympic team loses. They lost in the Miracle on Ice when they were STILL trained in hockey from birth and were Pros. I'm not sure he he was put through that but when he left Russia he was going to lose that robot thing eventually. When he started playing where losing was allowed and you were going to get beat or something for it he would be more relaxed and become human again. Ok that's a little unfair to the Russians but I am more refering to the Soviet Union and the Olympic team where they were expected to win and anything less then dominance was a dishonor. They didn't even need to lose for it not to be a dishonor to them, they simply needed to not dominate. Maybe they weren't beaten or anything but it was not a good thing. So now he is human, isn't that somewhat a good thing. Come on Mario and Gretzky were both human and you could see it at times. Jagr is a human and you can see it. What it is with the greatest players is that they see the game in a way that it seems like everyone is moving slower, they can see ahead of the play. They know where a goalie will watch and can fake and shoot with the goalie diving for the fake just as it is actually being shot over their shoulder. Taking him off Crosby's top line isn't really going to help or change things. I know you say well he'd be a center again or they would have more lines. Wouldn't help him though. He is a natural player and once he is comfortable at LW he will be fine.

Well as a hockey fan I'd say the Penguins should keep them on the same line.
As a Sens fan, I'd say at the moment the Sens are the underdog in this match up. Now, if they get frustrated enough they may all turn on and score tons of goals, but they are clearly in a slump. On the bright side for me and not you, I guess that the Sens are desperate. As a desperate team, you may see the team that embarassed the Devils and Leafs, rather than the team that dropped 5 games in a row for the first time in 10 years.

Yeah. Just because Malkin didn't score for one or two games doesn't mean Pittsburgh can't beat Ottawa. Sens suck. They're on a five-game losing streak and I don't see them breaking the streak tonight. Malkin and Crosby are a good combo, I think they should be kept together.

i think of maximum human beings have, and that i'm uncertain that the two Malkin or Crosby are interior the coolest 3 interior the sport. i'm additionally uncertain that i might positioned Pittsburgh interior the coolest 3 interior the EAST, not to show interior the league. They lost countless adult males that had build first rate chemistry with the gang, and lost a useful back up in Ty Conklin. i think of after this season countless human beings have found out that that is nowhere close to impossible to close Crosby and Malkin down (a minimum of interior the playoffs), yet countless "followers" are nevertheless brainwashed and below the effect that Crosby is the subsequent Gretzky. the two gamers have countless maturing to circulate nevertheless. they're incredibly youthful like unquestionably all and sundry says, and that they proved that interior the Cup finals. they want a pair greater seasons below their belts earlier they might take what keeps to be of the Pens deep into the playoffs back. Hossa gave the impression to be the only one to take place interior the SCF for them.

yes...i kno.....and OH GOD NO. the sens have been struggling a bit this year, but it seems that they can score as of late. however the penguins have some great offensive weapons and i believe they will win tonight. I don't think it would have been logical to think that malkin would have shattered that record, as even gretzky couldn't do it. and if the penguins want to continue winning i think they'll stick with crosby and malkin......and....colby armstrong i belive is the other guy.
