Everybody should calm down - it's not like Sid speared him in the junk. It was a typical playoff type play.

I'm not ignoring it...what i'm trying to say is that what Subban did does not equal what Crosby did. Subban's was a penalty, Crosby's was far worse.

Initially I said Crosby should've been penalized but upon another viewing...nah throw him out. But refs won't do that to Crosby...

They wouldn't do that to any player and that would always be an even up penalty in the finals for any team.

It was a Penalty for both get over it.

I just said Subban committed a penalty and should have been in the box, as he was. I didn't say Crosby shouldn't have been. So come off it.

He slammed Subbans head into the ice several times. What happened before has consistently NOT been called throughout the playoffs. I don't give a crap if either one was given 2 minutes, but that shit from Crosby was complete garbage

I would have called Crosby for two roughings and Subban for a hold. That's how I would have called it.

Wow. There are homers and then there is Darkstone

Crosby should have been kicked out of the game and suspended.

And that is why he is the hated suck he is

F Crosby
This. Sure put Subban in the box for retaliating, whatever you can make that argument if you want. But Crosby should've been gone...this game and game 1 tell me a lot...and I'm not as big an NHL fan as most here but I do watch

But when it happens to him it isn't? Check...got it...

We all know they would never call more than a Penalty on both that is typical in the finals for any team.

Anyone who thinks slamming an opponents head into the ice is playoff hockey is either a Crosby fan or Don Vherry.

Oh wait, Don loves PK.

/it is too hard to type on this IPad. I am heading back to the bar. Goog lucl all !

Exactly, this whining about the Penguins being whiners is fucking ridiculous. I forgot the NHL loves the Penguins and that's the reason they have appeared in every Cup final since Crosby has been in the league.

Fucking pathetic.

Carry on folks.

Never said that. Don't make stuff up.

It is the finals and typical for NHL refs. Is it right? No but thats what we get.

Love guys who make false statements then prove the statement false.

Haven't seen any anti Pens whining since the WAS series. . .

I don't think it's fine. But the refs have let a lot of brutal stuff go entirely, much less tossed people for it. The argument that Crosby justifiably could have been tossed is a good one. The argument that any other player would have is not.

Maybe you should go re-read the Ottawa thread and get back to me.

After watching the replay, I retract my call for a game misconduct for Crosby.
