PITTSBURGH — Early Tuesday afternoon, outside of the visiting dressing room at PPG Paints Arena, four guys inside one of hockey’s fiercest rivalries engaged in a similar conversation to ones that many Pittsburghers have had over the last couple of days.
After the Philadelphia Flyers finished up their morning skate, one Penguins forward on his way out of the building bumped into three familiar faces — two skaters and one staffer from the Flyers. Their small talk soon shifted to whether Sidney Crosby was going to get his 500th career goal against the Flyers that night.
The consensus? No way Crosby wouldn’t bury that dagger against the Flyers.
