Funny, I said the same thing (that it wasn't a big deal) 2 days ago. But apparently there are some Penguins fans who still have hurt feelings because someone dared to respond to 87 and push back when he dished out a hit away from the play. (Oh yeah, and then there was that one genius fan of yours who said that everything started when Cobourn cross-checked Crosby, so the record needed to be set straight on that.) The whole "whining and complaining" thing applies to both fan bases...Pens fans are some of the worst when it comes to trying to protect 87 & 71 when they dish out cheap shots or hits away from the play (and usually get away with it)...they say that they're just "sticking up for themselves" and therefore it's acceptable. But then when the shoe is on the other foot, all of a sudden Schenn is such a meanie for daring to touch 87 and is the culprit behind the whole melee at the end of the last game. LOL, it's so laughable. - shonoff95
I didn't say he was a 'meanie'...watch your language by the way...there are kids that read these comments.
I hadn't seen that replay before now. Wow...and THIS is what the Pens blogger (& some fans) are praising & lauding Letang for??? Yikes. The Academy Award goes to........
Check my previous post at 2:35pm for the whole "so retaliation is ok?" question. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and just assume that you completely missed that whole post.
Talking about Vitale, how is wittle Joey doing after getting a boo-boo from a WRIST shot last night? Is he gonna be okay, or does he need you to kiss it better for him?? - shonoff95
Maybe he can share a hospital room with Briere? That'd be kinda funny.
Briere will be coming back from complaining to the media, all hunched over and staring at his shoes because of his bad back and Vitale can level him again. Maybe we can even get him to kick a chocolate cupcake down the hospital hallway so it'll look like he's looking at the puck again? I don't know. Just a thought.

I think the shot was fired from the Grassy Knoll...

He took it like a man....unlike the tears coming from lil' debbie.....

I haven't heard a single fan praise him for this, today or last night.
It's bush league.
The only thing I will say is this. It has to be stopped by everyone. Becasue 1 PP might be all the advatnage someone needs to win a playoff round and if the other team is doing it your hand is kind of forced.
The Flyers are not innocent. I've seen Giroux (whom I love) do it at least twice this year.

I said it was moronic. - icedog97
I was paraphrasing. Kinda like how you guys "paraphrase" Flyer fans as "Cryers" for "pissing & moaning" or "whining & complaining" when we point out facts about how 87 & 71 get away with a lot of stuff they dish out but then can't take it when it comes back at them.

I refuse to get all worked up since nearly every player/team embellishes from time to time. I've seen previous philly heart throb Mike Richards dive a couple of times in the same game. Strange that Philly fans didn't seem to mind so much....

Just to clarify..."Crysby" and "Cindy" are unacceptable terms in this forum per your referee, but "lil debbie" is deemed to be okay. Got it. (Seems like the double standard held by Pens fans about their precious 87 & 71 being able to dish out hits but not take them has carried over to the forum.)
Btw, why "lil debbie?" Do you really like their snack-cakes or something? And how do you get "debbie" out of "danny?" At least "Crysby" is close (only 1 letter off).
Oh, and is Joey not talking to the media yet & crying because he's too busy eating through a straw, sitting in a quiet room, or realizing that Karma is a female dog? haha
This is a video of Letang play last night. At the 16 second mark it looks like his face and helmet moves as if the stick hits him. Obviously the snapping of this head was not needed but it actually appears to hit him after looking at it closer. Either way its over with and on to the next game. - kgrpitt

Wow, twice a year?! So that means that Sid and Letang would have him beat after a whole week of hockey games. Yeah, it really needs to stop.

I was going to say something to them as well but they said they don't care so I guess you're free to do as you please. To an extent.
I haven't heard anything, but a knee isn't suppose to kick out to the side they way it did. You have these things called ligaments that kinda, sorta tear or rip when that happens. Seriously, it looked brutal. And he didn't even try to get up. - s0rcerer1984
Supposedly he was walking without crutches after the game, surprisingly enough. Fingers crossed its just a hyper extension.

You go ahead and take a Chara shot off any body part. Padded or not and I bet you'd be crying like Briere. He could hit you with a tennis ball and you'd be bawling for your mommy.

Don't make fun of concussions and people getting them as karma when your captain that has been suspended 8 times in his career is out with a concussion right now.

yeah and maybe he can ask primeau and lindros how their scrambled brains are doing and see if pronger's eye is still hanging by a thread?
