Pens are looking like human pylons in this series.
Other than the breakaway beauty, Crosby wasn't very efficient on important defensive zone draws, in one instance going to the bench with the Predators having full possession of the puck where the Pens almost got scored upon. He tried to set up Guentzel repeatedly, who had defenders converging on him as I believe the Preds D recognized that Crosby will either pass to Guentzel or someone at the point 90% of the time. Predictable rinse and repeat plays, as the Art Ross winner he should be shooting more.
Better effort from Crosby, nice goal, but otherwise inefficient. Game 5 is another must watch game.
