Didn't care for that dive/acting by Tro.
Hopefully that's the only time he does that.
Must not have been if he is getting a fine. I'm pretty sure you get a warning privately first.

apparently not, unless it is possible to propel nyquist several inches into the air with only a stick tap on the shins
The problem is the NHL doesn't call obvious stick infractions. So players have to dive in order for them to "sell" the call better. Players shouldn't be diving, of course, but the NHL officials are still part of the problem.
Guys it's Trocheck, and while bad, Neal already has dive of the year locked up.
For only $3,000 more they could have skated up behind a player and slashed them in the testicles.

No arguments can be made on this dive, but come on, the "monster dive" against NYR was more of a loss of balance. Every single NHL player that gets high sticked does the whiplash to sell it, Trocheck isn't any different in that regard. He just happened to be skating backwards on one skate and lost his balance (because of the whiplash) in comical fashion.Trocheck is really making a name for himself for all the wrong reasons.
His Monster dive against the Rangers got him a warning and then he dives against the Caps just days later.
Still not as bad as this one at the start of the year.

What? That's one of the worst dives I've ever seen.
That Nyquist one was just
The key to the equation is to get indignant.
Dno what incident it is for Nyquist but if it's the call he drew on Eberle yesterday it's ridiculous, since it looked like he just fell but got up quick and made a play anyway. Not his fault the refs called a penalty. Late 2nd period for those who wanna check.
Figured Franzen would be hit first with this. Basically the only Red Wing forward who embellishes.
