Wow Malkin you ****
I think you guys are focusing on a wrong issue.

And what should we be focusing on?

The fact that we had like 20 scoring chances and weren't able to capitalize. We have ourselves to blame on this loss. Nobody else.

See I find this to be silly. Sometimes you face a hot goalie and that let's the other team stay in the game. We could have lost in regulation too. And we might have still lost had the penalty been called, but none of that changes the fact that the missed call absolutely decided the outcome of the game
I do applaud PL for playing the line matching game so perfectly, but... Well, I think the focus was too heavy on shutting down Crosby/Malkin and too little on having faith in the Preds' top 6.
I agree to a point but I also think we see the importance of having a true #1C.
Fair point. But here's the rub - btwn Fisher, Ribeiro and Hodgson, there are too many "middle 6" centers on the team.
Me, I'd dump one of Ribeiro or Hodgson, slot Fisher down to 2C and get a true 1C. Going forward (beyond this season), I'd plug Fisher into 3C, Hodgson into 2C where his offensive talents will actually shine, and still - this team NEEDS a genuine 1C!!!!
Won't be the last one that goes against us either, and I'm sure we'll have more than a few go in our favor. Ideally, we'll be good enough that it just won't matter most nights.
