from Jim Kelley at Sportsnet,
“Smarten up!”
Not to slap you around too much for Pittsburgh’s 4-0 loss to the Detroit Red Wings Saturday at the Joe Louis Arena, but you wear the “C” and the boys in the room are going to be looking for answers.
Here’s what you have to learn and here’s what you have to both tell and show them....
Don’t think you aren’t going to get hit, a lot. You’re a target; don’t cry about it and most importantly, look out for it. You are the guy they are going to try and knock out of a game and maybe, if they can, out of the series.

Ow! Ow! Ow!
Stop hitting me with your Sidney Crosby pompoms!
The Wings aren’t really the kind of team that would try to knock a player out of a series. It’s called “checking,” I believe. And Datsyuk seems to be surprising the Penguins with his proficiency at it.

This is a great example of the solid, impartial analysis we’ve come to expect from the national media.
Honestly though? Give me an effing break. When the Canadian national media clearly supports Canadian teams, I can look the other way, but this?
