After watching the Penguins’ big guns struggle to produce through the early going, I’d like to pose a question.
Is it time to split up Sidney Crosby and Phil Kessel?
I know. To even suggest such a move smacks of panic (and insanity). Not to mention cruel and unusual punishment. After all, Sid’s waited his whole career—or at least since Marian Hossa left the ‘Burgh—for a winger of Kessel’s pedigree. And it sure would dampen our lofty expectations of an electric pair lighting up scoreboards for the black and gold.
So do three straight season-opening losses.
