"He doesn't like it--no one likes it--when you play him hard. We have to play him and Malkin hard."
a stonefaced AO during a surprisingly candid and entertaining interview live with the Mullet on ESPN. Mullet went on to conclude the interview by stating that he wants to see #8 "move on and keep playing." Hmm.

It is kinda jarring to see ESPN putting on the full court press to make this about AO and Crosby, given that their Russian teammates are leading the playoffs in points and goals. Glad to see the attention, but definitely seemed a bit awkward.
Melrose picked the Caps to win – in 6 – so I guess he wasn’t lying! Of course, the only pick he got wrong in the first round (including the SJ-ANA series!) was picking the Flyers to beat the Pens, so maybe he is just not respecting the Pens enough.
