HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) How about: s*** Stain would have most likely blamed the puck and not have been able to shoot correctly for the rest of his career....wait a second! Can this happen??? No seriously, how tough was Stevie. Edited January 8, 2011 by HankthaTank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barrie 900 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) I still remember when he took that puck to the face though, because he'd get injured sometimes and you never saw him react to it violently. He would just get off the ice and that was that. This downed him like a felled tree and watching him writhe around and kick on the ice like that was disturbing. Yea that was a horrible game. I was actually watching with friends, who aren't Red Wings fans, but Leaf fans. They had no class and actually gave me a hard time when Calgary won that game. Obviously I was crushed about Yzerman, I thought his career was over, and couldn't care less about the loss. After that game I decided I'll never watch a Red Wings game with someone who isn't a Red Wings fan. Also it proved that Leaf fans suck!! Edit: I've never forgotten that night...

thedisappearer 291 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 DAMMIT. If it was any other injury besides a concussion, I would be happy to point and laugh at him. But concussions are serious, and we aren't really sure what the long term affects can be. So I'll smile and snicker at the f*****. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jenny 315 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) I suspect that Malkin actually went sneaking up behind Crosby with a lead pipe and whacked him a good one. "This WILL be my team and I WILL be the star, you whiny Canadian bastard!" ETA: "It was Malkin in the conservatory with the lead pipe!" "No, it was Ovechkin in the library with the rope!"

Vladifan 680 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 Do the Pens have to prove medical disability, as in Crosby's concussion? Does anybody in the league (HAH!) check up on that? Who's to say Crosby isn't faking it so he can rest up a bit? Like, they're playing the Wild tonight? I would not put it past him/them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edicius 3,269 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Call the Waaaaaaaaaaaahmbulance again. http://tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=348536 The Penguins captain said he thought that both the Steckel and Hedman hits were clear examples of the NHL's crackdown on shots to the head. So now boarding is a "clear example" of a hit to the head? So Crosby's not only a whiner, he's an idiot as well. I wouldn't put it past Campbell to still suspend Steckel. Meanwhile, no suspension for Kostopolous yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So Crosby's not only a whiner, he's an idiot as well. I wouldn't put it past Campbell to still suspend Steckel. Meanwhile, no suspension for Kostopolous yet? And here I was hoping Steckel's hit might have knocked some sense into him. I don't think in all the years I've been watching hockey, I've seen such an entitled, whiny, pusillanimous individual as Sidney Crosby. It really and truly boggles my mind. 2 edicius and Nev reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
