The Ford Stop:
The Pittsburgh Penguins have just struck fire so far through this playoff round against the Senators. Sidney Crosby has stepped up his game since he has been in the playoffs. He is really playing like he wants to win the Stanley cup. If the Senators do not step their game up quickly. They will be playing golf sooner then they would like to this year. It all comes down to the leadership to, Sidney Crosby has been working hard, which really motivates your players on the bench to do the same thing. I don't know if Daniel Alfredsson is doing the same for the Senators, I'm not saying he is a bad leader but he is going to have to step it up during the playoffs. As a captain you need to lead from the front of the pack, that is the key for you team to have any success. No matter what sport.
