Karan Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 That fucking blows. This is, what, his 4th concussion now? Gotta start thinking about life after hockey... I sometimes wonder about these things in today's NHL. Obviously there are different grades of concussions. They have not specific the severity of this one. But 10+ years ago, would they have even diagnosed this as a concussion? Most likely he might've played through it in the playoffs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean we saw Paul Kariya get knocked out, lay on the ice, and struggle to the bench only to come back into the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Falco Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 That fucking blows. This is, what, his 4th concussion now? Gotta start thinking about life after hockey... Yea, but unless he's truly concerned I can't see a guy like that walking away from the game right now. It's fucked up to say, but getting Crosby out was the only way the Caps were going to have a chance of winning the series. He was kicking their asses.

Valriera Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Yeah as much as I hate Crosby for being a whiny baby the guy is an unbelievable hockey player and it's a shame he's probably out for the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Honestly, Crosby's lucky this didn't happen on a much dirtier play and earlier in his career. The Pens have been goons for more than a fucking decade. You can just go down the list and look at the cheap shots against the Rangers alone. I hope he's fine after hockey but fuck this guy as a player and fuck the Pens as an organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillyb Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Yeah as much as I hate Crosby for being a whiny baby the guy is an unbelievable hockey player and it's a shame he's probably out for the playoffs. This sums up how I feel pretty well. Thanks for reading my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myusername Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Alright guys, let's be brutally fucking honest, none of us would give a rats ass if Crosby never played again. I won't wish for it, but I'm not going to be crying for him to come back because the game is better when he's playing. Give me a break... at the end of the day he's an obstacle (and a big one) to us winning the cup and the less he plays the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphinity 2.0 Posted May 2, 2017 Author Share Posted May 2, 2017 I would certainly care if the best player in the game right now were to just hang 'em up. As a Rangers fan, yeah, I'm glad the Penguins are now weaker. But c'mon, there's more to my hockey life than Rangers fandom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Alright guys, let's be brutally fucking honest, none of us would give a rats ass if Crosby never played again.

Phil Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I actually love Crosby, he's one of my favorite players Same. Then I see his face and want to punch it through the back of his skull.

I can't stand the guy but that's because he's so fucking good and not playing for this team. :D Would trade anyone on the roster for that disgustingly talented crybaby.

Myusername Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I would too, but as it is he doesn't play for us, he's the best player in the league, and he's in our friggin division. Quite honestly, I didn't mind him as much at first, but the Crosby lovefest has gotten old. He's also not the cleanest player and plays for a dirty team in general. Again, not wishing any ill will on him... just don't mind when he's not playing lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myusername Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I think this is why most refs will swallow the whistle very late in the game... because this type of garbage would happen all the time. Unless the guy is laying on the ice let them fucking play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Fucking ridiculous. How can the ref BEHIND the players call that penalty? He has no sight what so ever to the face of Bonino. He cant se a damn thing. If it is that easy to sell a penalty I dont know why players dont try that more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
