I have no problem with the way Crosby adn Malkin play... they make small mistakes, but everyone does that - the problem is that they don't have the talent around them to capitalize on their creativity.... How many times this season have you seen a pass from either one of them go to no-one ... not because it was a bad pass, but b/c other guys just don't think on the same page as them... and you'd think by now that they should know, when the least expect to get the puck, its going to end up on their stick...
On the same token you would expect Malkin and Crosby to see this as leaders and play with the capabilities of their team. I'm not saying they shouldn't try fantastic plays every now and then but I'm so sick of seeing Crosby trying to split the D just to end up getting stripped and the opponent comes back on the attack.
