The standings have been strange. After March 5, when they beat CBJ, they were 8 back. Now, after a 1-3-1 run, they are 5 back. Obviously they aren't winning enough games to even have a chance unless they start playing better, but it's weird that they are closer now than they were before those three blowout losses, leading to all the "Pens suck Dubas sucks" talk around the league.
Who knows, maybe NYR takes Pit lightly (or PIT just has a legitimately good game) and beat Detroit who are having an even worse time of it than the Pens have had.
I thought Malkin had a pretty good game, but he is so shy to shoot right now. Sid too lately but not as bad. They had a few of those Keefe Leafs shifts where they toss it around the perimeter but never actually get a quality shot out of it - which I think are great if you have the lead but frustrating if you actually need a goal.
