I have no favorite players on the Pens since Kovy retired, so I have no real bias with Malkin or Crosby. Never have, never will.
I was harsh on Malkin in the off season because I heard he wasn’t buying into the system and it was pretty apparent on the ice last season as well.
However, I’m really happy with how he’s playing now, but I’m not going to go all PC and pretend that Malkin and Crosby are viewed as complete equals in the org.
Every great sports org has their top dog, and that’s just how it is.
As I mentioned, this isn’t Crosby’s fault and I won’t be mad at Sullivan when the inevitable eventually happens.
I just hope and do believe Sullivan will make the very sound decision to keep riding the Malkin line until it struggles some.
