  1. The fact Crosby was so off his game that he was chasing Connor around looking for a fight and he took a stupid cross-checking penalty to get one says a lot about Pittsburgh too, nobody supported or defended him. When your top scorer is the one dropping gloves because he's frustrated and his bestest pal Malkin is saying he doesn't care if they win or lose only that their top line just wants to play out their careers together, you need to start looking at serious changes. When the Sedins got that feeling they were going through the motions they did the right thing and retired before the fans turned on them.
