Malkin and Thornton.

Atlanta isn't known for their strong defense, Pens looking for a bounce back game with a reunited Crosby-Malkin-Gonchar winning PP combo. This one's easy.

I give Thornton the edge here because his line is better, even if it's just him and Heatley. No offense to Perry or Ryan, but Heatley's got a gun, with all the polish and the poise. They could be Heatley, but they're not yet. Kicker, it ran Thornton-Heatley-Marleau last night, and you can see how Philly, a great team thus far this season in their own right faired against such an imposing line.

Well Thornton isnt known for scoring goals so I dont know what he is talking about. But I would definitely choose Malkin and the other is really a toss up. Thornton got 4 points in his last game but it was last night so he could be tired. Getzlaf has also been hot so I might lean in his direction.

But really I like Thornton more than Getzlaf, something about his face I don't like.

So Malkin and Thornton
