What was almost as interesting about that "fight" is what led up to it. Kane gave Crosby two good body checks in the 1st period, but one might have been a little late. No penalty was called on Kane, but Crosby got his lace in a bunch and took a cross-checking penalty on Kane afterward. The rest of the Pens then commenced to have a mental meltdown and went running all around the ice after Kane every time he was on the ice. Goddard took a roughing on Kane, Rupp got a misconduct at the same time.
The 2nd period started and then Cooke went high on Kane along the glass, got in his face and challenged Kane to the fight. Kane dropped him like the punk that he is, and Kennedy later took a slashing penalty on Kane. The whole thing was like Kaleta times ten. [color=#FFBF40]That's the kind of team Pittsburgh is right now with Crosby as their "captain"[/color]. Is their anything more ironic than this crap coming from the team/player that put Savard out with a blind-side - losing their composure that way over a couple legal body checks to their whiny puss bag chief crybaby??
Interestingly slanted viewpoint. Guess what though....if Crosby were on the Sabres and someone hit my best player with a late hit, I'd sure as hell would hope my team would do the same thing. I think our Sabres could learn a little something from this. Not the "take your head out of the game, take dumb penalties" or "get knocked out" aspects, but the ACTUALLY STANDING UP FOR A TEAMMATE part.
