Against All Odds: Can the Penguins Defy History and Complete the Impossible Comeback?
It helps, too, that the Penguins have a nice collection of veterans in the room who know what it takes to win. Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Kris Letang, and Sam Girard all have Stanley Cup wins on their resumes, and the adversity of the playoffs is something they’ve all experienced to the very end, when they – ultimately – had the chance to hoist Lord Stanley in celebration on the ice.
“It’s pretty clear. I think, being in this position, you can’t look too far ahead, you’ve just got to look at what’s in front of you, and that’s tomorrow and making sure that we put our best game on the ice,” Crosby said. “I don’t feel like we feel like we’ve done that for a complete game yet. Maybe different parts of games, but that first period’s more of how we want to play. We just weren’t able to sustain it. So, if we can put some periods together like that, then we can give ourselves a chance.”
