Crosby out for Game 6

Big loss obviously.

We need to be careful though. We don't want to be over confident thinking they are in big trouble without him, and sometimes teams for a game or two can step up big when they lose a star. Eventually it catches up to you, but for a game or two they could actually get a lift as you know they'll be fired up, and want to win one for Sid.

Be extra careful now IMO.

I'd like to see Mika and/or Panarin earn their big contracts tonight. Wouldn't that be nice if one of these two "studs" stood up in this game.

First goal big. And we have got to withstand the first 10-12 minutes, which you know the crowd and the Pens team will be crazy amped up. Get through that stretch tied or ahead and we are in a good spot I think.

Actually the pens won a lot of games when Crosby was out long term in some seasons.
