The "I Can't Believe There's No Thread Yet" Pens at Flyers GNT

Rumor on the twitterverse is that Giroux was choked up in the postgame. Claude...buddy...it's the regular season. Also: the hockey world would implode if the Penguins captain did that (besides the time he cried hoisting that silver trophy thing).

Maybe his 2 "broken wrists" still hurt???

It's just funny going through twitter because the responses from Flyers fans are "Aww, he has heart! He cares!" All well and true, but...man I probably wouldn't cry in that situation. Not regular season. And I'm a weepy female. Just the way I am.

I doubt he actually shed tears but if he did, oh the irony of "crybaby crosby"

kudos to the Pens for not rolling over after the 1st period.Fuckity,fucking,fuck on the Flyers
freefall.

And yes,you don't gloat until the games over.

Typical Flyers/Pens game. Very fun, but disappointing from my end tonight. Good game guys.

But LOL @ insinuating Giroux faked wrist surgery.

According to who though? I follow all the flyers writers worth following I think? Not a peep from them as of yet

I was on the verge of tears watching it,so why shouldn't a guy who actually played on the losing end of that fiasco be on the brink of tears?

Oh ya look at all the ppl commenting on it. Rough presser for Claude apparently. I'll have to wait and see

 

[pixburgher66]

I mean, the initial reaction was from (female) Flyers fans going all gooey over sensitive Claude.

Oh, he had the injury, I tend to think that it was the culmination of an entire season/postseason, but of course it works easier for the rivalry to say it was Sid. No qualms about that though.

Hahahhahahahaha

I suppose the saying is there's no crying in baseball...not hockey.

Not sure if I did that right from my phone, but crying is a little over the top. He is oddly out of breath though which is weird. Did he have the hiccups or something?

I mean, I'd say choked up. Either that or the guy has a cold. I think he just didn't want to talk to anyone.

EDIT: he was nearly there at the end actually...kinda feel bad for the guy. Kinda. He was on the brink. Man, if a tear had been shed...never again would a "Crybaby Crosby" thing worked. NEVER.

That's what i was thinking too.

Reports of crying overblown, I guess. Although he seemed to choke up at the end - maybe the Philly site was smart enough to cut the interview there?

Still very satisfying to see his soul crushed, though!
