from John Glennon of Chilling Out at the Tennessean,
Casual hockey fans tuning in to see the magic of Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin must be wondering just what the fuss is all about. Crosby at least managed six shots on goal on Monday, while Malkin (zero shots on goal, minus-two rating) continued to perform as if he’s in some type of witness protection plan.
Hockey fans who’ve watched the Wings play all season have become somewhat accustomed to Detroit’s suffocating, puck-possession style. But still, is the Penguins’ effort thus far really the best the Eastern Conference can offer?

I laughed when I read the comment on the article, because I was thinking the same thing - the Penguins are making the effort of the predators look even more impressive - and I thought they looked pretty good even at the time.

Yes. This is the best the East can offer.
DAL would be giving fits to PIT right now too, for sure. PIT would have a fair shot against anyone else in the West. Welcome to why the current scheduling was a folly and error in ways…
However, anyone else behind PIT in the East would not. The West remains where it’s at for now, despite the superstars in the east.
