For the Penguins to persevere and succeed against the Predators, they'll need more production from Evgeni Malkin, left, and Phil Kessel. “He score,” said Malkin, asked what he thought Kessel would do in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup final with the Nashville Predators. “Play more with puck, play with more puck, I like to play with puck.” Kessel, too, has a way of boiling the complexities of hockey and of his own hockey mind down into simple statements. When Pittsburgh played its best game of the series in Game 4, Crosby created chance after chance and scored Pittsburgh’s lone goal, while Kessel and Malkin didn’t come as close. Crosby and Malkin and Kessel have the best chances to make the difference, and further etch their names in history.
