Power Rankings: Pittsburgh Penguins again lead the pack, but their hold is precarious

PITTSBURGH -- Despite the Pittsburgh Penguins' undefeated start to Round 2 of the Stanley Cup playoffs, coach Mike Sullivan sees areas for improvement in his team. Most notably, he wants to see his players spend more time in the offensive zone and depend less on the counterattack as their main source of offense.

"We've always said to our players, we have to be a team that generates offense in different ways," Sullivan said on Sunday. "Moving forward, our hope is that we do a better job controlling territory so we don't have to rely on [the counterattack] as much.
