EVIL LAUGH
That's very much how I feel, too. "Stripping" him of the C is unduly harsh language. If he wants the C it is his as long as he's here. His actual performance as captain isn't my concern, but rather if we can release a little bit of pressure off a player who puts unfathomable amounts on himself already.
This is the most responsible post that could be said. He's had this thrust upon him before he ever became pro. The pressure from his own doing only adds to the pressure everyone thrusts upon him. He's been a willing taker, and for most part he's delivered as expected.
The Crosby><Malkin bit, I only have an issue they can't be going together at one time anymore. Malkin is lights out mostly when Sids out with the exception of "1" season, and Sid just pretty much is Sid when you take away injuries.
Both can be dominating, but the team has to play the ego's and not do/play it to their advantages. The biggest advantage this team has has been wiped away because of ego's, the #1 PP unit. Both have to be on it rather than each their own #1 unit. They both thrived when they each had their own and I think they just get in each others way, period. It's an indifference that should help the "team", and that should be welcomed. They seem just fine being on separate lines? *rabble rabble*
