Stopping Crosby and Malkin, by Mike Komisarek

From the National Post’s Joe O’Connor;
Hockey players always put on a brave face. It is just what they do. But there are some things worth being scared of. And three of them will be at the Air Canada Centre tonight as the Toronto Maple Leafs play host to Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and the defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins.
The Leafs have opened the season in a funk. They are winless after three games, and currently dead last in the Eastern Conference standings. The Penguins are 3-1, and sat atop the conference pecking order before Friday’s slate of NHL games.
Something is bound to give when a good team plays the bad Leafs. And someone will have to stop Crosby and Malkin. So, how does one do that, beyond offering the hockey gods a solemn pre-game sacrifice?
