from Bill Simonson of the Grand Rapids Press at Mlive,
Watching Detroit crush the Penguins on Saturday night was as of fulfilling as anything I have ever witnessed in sports. Even better than when the Red Wings got Roy pulled in that epic Western Conference final Game 7….
The showboating and headhunting has no place in hockey. It’s obvious Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin are the malcontents who run the show and when their game is on they dance and throw it in the face of their opponents. Did Stevie Yzerman or Wayne Gretzky ever show up other teams?
When the little baby Penguins are frustrated they can’t handle it and lose it on the ice for all to see. Great teams and great players win and lose with class like the Red Wings….
Lets be honest about Crosby. He’s got great talent with an immature side to him that probably will never see a Stanley Cup trophy parade as long as the Red Wings are in business. He knows this and it kills him so the little sniper and his Russian buddy Malkin bask in the glory of home ice but have curled in to the fetal position on the road in Detroit.
