PITTSBURGH -The Pittsburgh Penguins have already won a Stanley Cup Playoff series this spring without getting much offense from Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin.
Chances are they're going to need the two forwards to break out at some point, however, if the Penguins are going to get past the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Eastern Conference Final. It would certainly make Pittsburgh coach Mike Sullivan's job easier if it happens in Game 2 of the best-of-7 series at Consol Energy Center on Monday (8 p.m. ET; NBCSN, CBC, TVA Sports).
