Crosby's stick to the mouth "enhancement"

[Absolut]

I do not want to see this sort of thing from a top player in the league. Not necessary. And I am rooting hard for Boston to lose.

Oh be quiet lol

Natural reaction take the butt end of a stick to your mouth see what happens.

 

[Beezeral]

Crosby has been diving for years. This isn’t new.

Jump in the air and snap your neck back like that? That was absolutely embellished.

 

[Iapyi]

Curious if you've ever taken a butt end to the mouth? I do get what you're saying though and thought the same at first but replays showed it clearly and he was bleeding.

 

[Jacob]

If you don’t exaggerate high sticks the refs don’t see them. Literally everyone does it.

 

[BlackFrancis]

Iconic flop.

 

[orby]

It's embellishment, but he actually did get sticked in the face and blood was drawn. Don't really see a major issue with it.

Crosby got nothing for leaving Methots finger dangling by a piece of skin.

'Intentionally by accident' or not, Bergeron did hit him in the face with the butt end of his stick, so why not sell it and make the Bruins pay?

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Did he do this on the ground? Would expect nothing less from Crosby. Diving his whole career.

Lmao at calling that 4 double minor.

It's an automatic double minor if a player bleeds from a high stick. It's one thing to whine about Refs making subjective calls, but to complain about an automatic one?

He snapped his head back so hard, I am worried about a neck injury here.

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

Krejci high sticks mccann there too. Set play to high stick everyone at once?

 

[JoVel]

Every team has a handful of players who dive on occasions. If you claim your team has none you're a blind homer. Some just do it more blatantly than others, lol.

Is this the OP?

 

[soothsayer]

His risk of injury to his back and neck with that flail is more concerning than the tap to his mouth.

 

[dukeofjive]

Sid even had one of those fake blood pouch in is mouth, what a trooper...

"Lmao" at the refs calling a mandatory 4 minute penalty when there's blood drawn from a minor. What a joke!

 

[Dominance]

You tools try too hard.

It hit him hard enough to draw blood.

 

[Anglesmith]

This is a guy getting hit with a butt end in the face, and seems to be a natural reaction to that situation.

The thing I have more of a problem with is that he also high sticked Bergeron on the same play, which the refs also would've seen on the replay.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Lucky he doesn't get whiplash there.
