That fight or whatever you wanted to call it was fast.

[Echolalia]

God that was horrible. Crosby totally sneak attacked him while he was focusing on the faceoff. Crosby had two punches in before the guy even realized Crosby wanted to fight. Jesus, Crosby, you're really making it hard for people to see past the "nhl whoring" to the fact that you're "really a good and classy hockey player". Long live Yzerman.

I don't get it. Was there some prelude to this fight, or did Crosby really just haul off and start beating on McLean? Looked like a Tootoo special without any power behind it.

The girl needs to learn how to fight with the big boys. You don't just jump on someone's back when they aren't looking. I like how a ***** ass ***** is the poster boy for a league with some of the toughest athletes out there.

Before the faceoff they were talking a lot, I think they were going to fight eventually, but crosby knew he was going to get wailed on so he made sure he started it and caught McLean by surprise. To clear it up for so me people, I don't hate crosby nor do I ***** about him. I just think that he does get special treatment sometimes, and people speak of him as if he's god. Yes, he is a superstar, but I consider players that are skilled in all aspects of the game (offense and defense) to be more valuable IMO. Oh, and I do not sit and scan news to see if Crosby is involved. I was checking Yahoo NHL and this was one of the links. People that complain about people who complain about Crosby are as bad the the other people. Wow, that was a mouthful.

Yeah I heard that Crosby and McLean were saying that they wanted to go, but it was pretty clear that McLean wasn't ready.

Pretty much.

Pathetic showing by Crosby... He did manage to cut him somehow with those punches though.

[MTU_Huskies963]

Just funny two things 1) He jumbed Mclean and 2) He's fighting with a visor on. I really hope someone smacks him up in a fight.

[Coolio Mendez]

You guys thought Crosby's fight was bad check out Semins

He probably caught him with one of his ***** nails.
s*** like this makes me so mad. Regardless of the player.

He didn't even give Mclean a second to realize what was about to happen. Crosby knows he would've had his ass handed to him. Sad display.

[Detroit # 1 Fan]

Greg Campbell was giving it to Crosby pretty good all game before this, McLean started running his mouth at him too. Crosby ripped him around pretty good, if he had thrown any punches at all he would've pummled him, I honestly dont know how you can get that mad, and then not throw any decent punches..

[Z and D for the C]

Crosby is such af****** *****. If he wanted to drop the gloves in a face off, that'd be awesome, but he's a *****. He's just pulling his jersey back and forth.

[Yzerman191]

Regardless of whether or not Crosby is telling the truth in his post-game comments (he said that they had agreed to fight), it was quite apparent that McLean was NOT ready. You don't grab someone who isn't even looking at you, pull their jersey over their head, and begin to wail on them (and it wasn't so much punching as it was dragging around the ice). Maybe Crosby needs the s*** kicked out of him once or twice to teach him a lesson.

[SoDakWing]

So.. is that the new way to fight in the NHL? just pull him around the ice... Why to go Crosby.. you "fight" like a girl.

no you just complemented him... he fights like a little *****.

[shannyfan1414]

I like how it seemed as though Crosby never let go of the jersey when trying to punch his shoulder pad.

As for the guy that said he fights like a girl, well i have seen alot of girls that put up a much better fight then that.

One more reason for me to hate this kid.

[egroen]

The announcers crack me up... you would think you were witnessing something historic there.

[Reilly]

Uh, yeah, I don't think a 30 year old man is ever going to punch a 21 year old in this league.

[Wings_Fan_In_Exile]

While I do think that was almost a Tootoo'esque move by Crosby, I willl grudgiinly admit that it appeared to be more a frustration move than him just being a *****.

But that Semin fight.....wow. That was damn funny.

[aflac9262]

All this video needs now is Benny Hill music
This has to be one of the saddest "fights" in NHL history.

[Spinner]

I bet Crosby tries to kiss and makeup before the next time they play each other so he doesn't get his azz kicked
