It took Crosby less than a minute to dispense with the formalities, and cut through the game like a saw. He was a force in Game 4, playing with the skilled desperation that renders him electric, separate. If Nashville ran them over in the first three games of the series, the Penguins were behind the wheel now. Bryan Rust golfed in a backhand five minutes after the first goal, and it was clear: Nashville hasn’t really controlled a game since Game 3. Pittsburgh beat Ottawa 7-0 in Game 5 here in the conference final, and found themselves in Game 7 double OT a few days later.
