Thread: Can we Take Down Pittsburgh?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rangersandislesfan</b></div><div>In my opinion Crosby is the best player on the pens, but i don't think he's the best in the league, i think he's the second best in the league (as i think Mcdavid is the best in the league).
And yes, i think the Caps can beat the pens, AND i think the pens could beat the caps.

On nhl.com i saw something where they picked who has the better one of these 7 things for each 1st round playoff matchup:
Forwards
Defence
Goaltending
Penalty Kill
Power Play
Leadership
Coaching

I give Washington 6 of those of those over Toronto in the 1st round (Toronto gets Coaching), and i think Washington beats Pittrbugh 7-0 in those categories. I think Washington has better forwards than Pittsburgh, better defence than Pittsburgh, better goaltending than Pittsburgh, better penalty kill than Pittsburgh, better power play than Pittsburgh, better coaching than Pittsburgh, and better leadership than Pittsburgh. But they're all pretty close i guess.</div></div>

I HATE THE PENS WITH A PASSION
but Ovie isnt a great leader - Backstrom and Orpik are the only above average ones, plus the pens have Malkin, Crosby, MAF, Cullen, Kunitz, Letang as the leaders for the team. I also think Mike Sullivan is alot better than Trotz in my opinion.
