although another idea could be doing it for their players...i know everyone would want marchand but there would be plenty to go around

Any team that employs Brad Marchand should be the last to complain about embellishing.

We could also put up some actual divers in our avatars for the playoffs like Despatie or something like that.

Any team that employs Brad Marchand should be the last to complain about embellishing.

Especially when the rest of the team dives like crazy.

I'm seriously saying this being as unbiased as possible:

I really don't think the Habs dive. People say PK embellishes. Depends what your interpretation of embellishment means. He doesn't try to get a call on something that isn't a penalty. Embellishing suggests that he overreacts to the action. I haven't noticed that (but welcome video evidence), only him actually complaining about a legitimate call considering he takes the biggest beating all night long.

Remember the DD diving penalty? Not at all a dive. He tried to get his balance back, but caught a rut. Either way, it was caused by a hook. I just don't see us diving. Yes, sometimes the refs make weak calls against the other team, but in no way are they disproportionate.

As for the Bruins, it's really only their own fans who don't see the hypocrisy with which they rant. Everyone knows that not only are they whiners, but that they are the BIGGEST divers.
