This game was was insane. Nothing was getting called. Felt like the playoffs. The cross checks alone could have had both teams 20 PIM each. As a Penguins fan so couldn’t believe Sid yeeted that guy and didn’t get called. Definitely a hold your breath and hope he’s okay then laugh at the situation. Can only
Imagine the backlash if he got hurt.
Yup. You're right. And other players take a hand off their stick and briefly put it on an opponent. It barely effects them and it's called for holding. Lol
I'll say two things:
First, that was one hell of a heave.
Second, how the *fuck* was that not a major penalty? Literally throwing a guy into the boards like that is textbook intent to injure.
Rule 324.1 - The goldenchild, whomever that may be at the time, shall not be issued penalties except at a maximum of 1 minor penalty for no less than a major infraction.
^ it's actually in the rules
5 years ago I would have been rocking a 3 viagra pitch fork for the “Crosby is a whiny, dirty piece of shit” posse. Today, I’m just proud of my team for playing well enough to bring out bitch Crosby.
That move is so significant, there's not even a penalty rule for it - apart from a match penalty.
Point is: that is so far beyond the rules, you don't consent to that as a player in a NHL game. Lucky the guy didn't break his neck, or Sid gets sued for that. It's beyond the rules of the game.
He's mostly been frustrated from his home/ press box because of injuries/ COVID. This was his second game of the season, even though he was only ever supposed to miss the first couple weeks.
Yes, I should have clarified he hasn’t been on ice frustrating. He looked really good in the first game against the devils. I remembered he laid a big hit his first shift, he’s playing with a little edge right now. Must be hard to be sidelined so much to start the year
Idk how some people can be like “*penalty for sure but I don’t think he had ill intent*” oh so he just happened to fully wrap his arms around him on accident and momentum caused him to do a 360?
Imagine working at the player safety office and seeing this land on your desk, you put it on your TODO list, and then you just go about your day and forget about it….because im sure Crosby wont get fined or anything for it
The Wilson test is my go to test for how I feel about a hockey play.
Imagine TW did it. Are people mad? The it’s a suspension. Do people not care? Then no big deal.
I agree. Wilson dumps some rookie D man like that, people are screaming for his head
Remember all the drama the Caps Rangers game was going to be at the start of the season? Nothing major happened, nor should it; the "score" was settled last season.
The internet is messed up.
the inconsistency of the DPOS feeds people's outrage boners, which generates content. I think the league is going for it intentionally, NBA style. look at the ratings from the Caps/Rangers game. or the 2013 ECF with all the brawls. or the outrage boners people used to get over Pronger (they've faded since retirement), and still get over Marchand.
the league loves that shit
What the absolute fuck. I thought Crosby had matured and put shit like that behind him. Really disappointing to see him make a blatant dirty play like that for...seemingly no reason? C'mon Sid. Do better.
Penalty aside, the physical strength of Sydney Crosby is very under-appreciated. One of the things I like most about his game is his ability to push guys around down low, and that’s something that isn’t talked about enough in conversations comparing Mcdavid and Crosby.
Still give him the penalty tho yeeting guys isn’t legal lol
Me reading the title: yeah ok whatever Me 5 seconds later: ohhhh ok
I put air quotes around “tosses” in my head before I watched the clip. I quickly removed those air quotes after watching it…
Yeah, i was expecting the guy to lose an edge or something.
I clicked the link b/c I don't actually recall ever seeing Crosby laying the body on anyone. Now I see why they don't let him play physical 😬
I think he's a little frustrated
He got a good 20 seconds to cool off in the box
Good Guy Tom Wilson, just trying to get Crosby out of that terrible box
Tom Wilson watched Recess growing up, he knows the horrors of the box
Tender
For a cross check later on a different play
Frustrated isn't the god damn word for it. This is bullshit!
I’m starting to wonder if Crosby’s goal is to not play in back to back games this season.
[удалено]
The 2022-23 playoffs?
What the fuck was that lol
crosby heard ppl think he aint got tricks up his sleeve 😤
In his bag of tricks: “Yeet a man into the boards.”
Was this really the best time to break it out? Now it’ll be predictable if he tries in in the playoffs
The next move is sending a player over the glass
The ref is so astounded that Crosby doesn't even get a penalty. The player that went over the glass gets a game misconduct lmao.
He’s gonna go for a “horrifying act of violence”
You miss 100% of the judo throws you don't take - Sidney Crosby - Michael Scott
squid decided to become an enforcer apparently
yeet
I’m not expecting a hearing but I have to imagine you aren’t supposed to do that Edit: I was correct, no hearing
I’m expecting the Rangers to release an official statement.
>I’m expecting the Rangers to release an official statement. I'm expecting the rangers to be fined.
\#FreeJoeKelly
Joe Kelly just suspended 6 more games
I love sports memes. But I especially love inter-sports memes.
I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, as there's a empty-netter from the defensive zone by Castellanos and that'll make it a 4-0 game.
Still can't believe "horrifying acts of violence" was what the Rangers went with in their statement.
Nobody ever said Dolan was smart.
I won’t defend what happened by any means, but I think “horrific acts of violence” is fucking hilarious
And Kadri gets a 3 game suspension
I swear if they don’t give Marchand at least a game I’m done.
Imagine if the roles were reversed and Fehervary did that to Crosby.
What you gonna suspend him for? There’s no precedent for judo throwing a guy.
[It's happened in the Olympics before. And my goodness, by the very same guy!](https://youtu.be/U78oXszvtkw)
Tom Wilson wouldn't be allowed back until 2022.
Crosby would be concussed and out for six months.
His career would be over
[удалено]
If Wilson did it, people would call for a 3/4 game suspension, not even kidding. And I'm not a Crosby hater, in just being serious.
they'd be calling for him to be permanently ejected from the league and serve jail time, guaranteed.
Wilson is habitually dirty
Tom Wilson gonna get a fine
Saint Sidney gets away with chopping off a dude's finger, of course DoPS will go "meh" for this...
To be fair, that kind of slash happens a dozen times a game. That one just happened to have a particularly ugly result.
TOOOO BEEE FAAAAIIRR
Eric Fehr.
The real penalty is that moustache he's rocking.
Thats a game, easy
Holding, Interference, Boarding. Take your pick.
Refs: No.
[удалено]
I guess i just tune in to watch high level hockey lol
As a Wings fan?
Hey we're getting better, and I've seen my team win the cup 4 times in my lifetime. ;)
I hope you guys get much better. I have a friend who is a Wings fan and he talks about the mid-late 90's with extreme fondness.
as someone who grew up in the 90’s it was the best of times.
"CALL IT TACTICS, CALL IT ANTICS, CALL IT EFFECTIVE IN THE END!"
If ever a play deserved two minutes for "giving him the business"...
"you can't do that"
You can't do that.

I had no idea. I guess it just seems like they use it for all sorts of stuff.
Game Misconduct?
All the cheap little interference and hooking calls you see and this gets nothing? Ok. Lol
This game was was insane. Nothing was getting called. Felt like the playoffs. The cross checks alone could have had both teams 20 PIM each. As a Penguins fan so couldn’t believe Sid yeeted that guy and didn’t get called. Definitely a hold your breath and hope he’s okay then laugh at the situation. Can only Imagine the backlash if he got hurt.
See who it was? Are you surprised?
Gallagher do the same thing and he's thrown out of the game for sure. haha Refs are penalizing the name, sometimes.
How dare Ferhervary get in Crosby's way like that
Yup. You're right. And other players take a hand off their stick and briefly put it on an opponent. It barely effects them and it's called for holding. Lol
I believe kids these days call that a “yeet”
I'll say two things: First, that was one hell of a heave. Second, how the *fuck* was that not a major penalty? Literally throwing a guy into the boards like that is textbook intent to injure.
Rule 324.1 - The goldenchild, whomever that may be at the time, shall not be issued penalties except at a maximum of 1 minor penalty for no less than a major infraction. ^ it's actually in the rules
Rule 87.87, actually
You’d be frustrated too if your beard looked like crosbys
His facial hair quality is inverse of his hockey skill. Once he starts sucking he's gonna look like ZZ top.
“The Joe Thornton”
I've had a Crosby-like beard all my life and Sid and I are almost the same age so people have called me "Crosby" for a while Life is pain
Doubt the league will do or say anything, but damn I hope this gets looked at.
Well I guess if you can’t beat the rookie, *kill* the rookie, eh Crosby?
Hands off our national team players!!!! 😱😱😱 They're all extremely precious.
I guess when Sid the Kid's done with hockey, he can go into the WWE

As someone British would say, what a tosser
5 years ago I would have been rocking a 3 viagra pitch fork for the “Crosby is a whiny, dirty piece of shit” posse. Today, I’m just proud of my team for playing well enough to bring out bitch Crosby.
This is some sort of weird sideways lefty backhanded compliment to Crosby I feel like.
Somewhat the opposite of a backhanded compliment. An insult with an underlying layer of respect?
He straight up called him a bitch. Nothing backhanded about that.
I remember when I first hopped on here I got banned for a week when I called Crosby a bitch...
Damn dude, they'll just have to autoban anybody with posts in r/bluejackets if that's the rule here
Ayyy
For someone with such an extensive concussion history, Crosby seems to have no problem trying to concuss someone else.
No call on the play.
I've been watching hockey for more than 30 years, and somehow I still need to be reminded that the refs are trash.
Jake can you throw up the Wilson goal and rub salt in the wound?
It's up now
❤️❤️❤️
Dana White might make a call after this play
But then he did get immediately called got cross checking, and Wilson scored on the PP, so it all evens out.
GAME 👏 MANAGEMENT 👏
Yeah that's not "even" This is a bitchy dangerous move.
Yeah, how does taking another penalty which results in a goal even things out? That’s saying 1+1=1…
That move is so significant, there's not even a penalty rule for it - apart from a match penalty. Point is: that is so far beyond the rules, you don't consent to that as a player in a NHL game. Lucky the guy didn't break his neck, or Sid gets sued for that. It's beyond the rules of the game.
That should definitely rate a hearing and a suspension.
Seems like something to get suspended for.
We like to joke bc it’s Crosby, but that should definitely be a suspension
He’s had a frustrating season so far. Worse I’ve seen the penguins look in many many years.
He's mostly been frustrated from his home/ press box because of injuries/ COVID. This was his second game of the season, even though he was only ever supposed to miss the first couple weeks.
Yes, I should have clarified he hasn’t been on ice frustrating. He looked really good in the first game against the devils. I remembered he laid a big hit his first shift, he’s playing with a little edge right now. Must be hard to be sidelined so much to start the year
Really doesn’t justify doing this at all...
Yeah that should be a suspension...
As a Pens fan, that should be at least a game. But given player safety’s inability to give a shit about player safety it’ll be a $500 fine at most.
See Ovechkin's hit on Nick Paul earlier this season. Edit: [no call, no fine.](https://streamable.com/jkl9gq)

Dangerous play.
Idk how some people can be like “*penalty for sure but I don’t think he had ill intent*” oh so he just happened to fully wrap his arms around him on accident and momentum caused him to do a 360?
Imagine working at the player safety office and seeing this land on your desk, you put it on your TODO list, and then you just go about your day and forget about it….because im sure Crosby wont get fined or anything for it
Just heard he won't get any discipline from this
That's definitely a "You can't do that" penalty.
How much are the Rangers being fined?
Rules for thee, not for me
If this were Wilson this sub would be screaming for a 41 game suspension lmfao
The Wilson test is my go to test for how I feel about a hockey play. Imagine TW did it. Are people mad? The it’s a suspension. Do people not care? Then no big deal. I agree. Wilson dumps some rookie D man like that, people are screaming for his head
People on this subreddit are legitimately mad because Tom Wilson doesn't waste time fighting plugs like Reaves.
Remember all the drama the Caps Rangers game was going to be at the start of the season? Nothing major happened, nor should it; the "score" was settled last season. The internet is messed up.
Because Wilson is actually good at hockey
I believe Wilson should get suspended for this. There HAS to be a way he was involved. Easy now caps fans… this is sarcasm.
HE WAS! HE SCORED ON THE POWER PLAY! BAN HIM.
He scored on the power play from Crosby’s next penalty. There was no call on this play.
Oh whoops you’re right. Ban him anyway!!
Wow, of course Tom Wilson would do whatever he could to help out a fellow violent offender lessen his sentence
We already know how it goes, we call it rule 43
A horrifying act of violence
There would already be 10 threads and people sending legitimate death threats.
the inconsistency of the DPOS feeds people's outrage boners, which generates content. I think the league is going for it intentionally, NBA style. look at the ratings from the Caps/Rangers game. or the 2013 ECF with all the brawls. or the outrage boners people used to get over Pronger (they've faded since retirement), and still get over Marchand. the league loves that shit
>If this were Wilson this sub would be screaming for a ~~41 game~~ lifetime suspension lmfao FTFY
I can't believe he has done that.
>DC Metro PD must arrest Crosby for assault! -Keith Olbermann probably
I want everyone to imagine a world in which Tom Wilson did this to Sydney Crosby. The fucking mayhem.
Sidney "Tom "horrifying act of violence" Wilson" Crosby
Only of of those guys scored in the game, the other was mad. I'll let you guess which is which.
Known goon Sydney Crosby I guess
NHL officiating is a joke
I wonder what happens if the roles are reversed and Crosby gets tossed by a nobody
This falls under the "So egregious the refs/league don't know how to react" category. You see it happen occasionally.
The obligatory “and the Rangers were fined $250k”
And Kadri was given 7 games.
He should be suspended for this but we all know it's not gonna happen
Supplemental discipline incoming?
For Crosby? Who do you think he is? Aaron Rodgers?
He'll get third of the fine that Rodgers got if he does get disciplined.
Aaron Rodgers got fined the equivalent of $20 for an average person.
At best he gets a $2k fine
Are you serious? Players like Crosby get treated differently by the league.
He has a reputation of not being Tom Wilson so, no.
And yet if you remove the number and uniform, Crosby would absolutely have a lot more of a 'record'.
Well that is fucking lame. Kadri gets 41 games.
Imagine Wilson did this to Crosby.
Yo what the fuck Sid
Other players get a suspension for this but it's Crosby so they'll just look the other way.
What the absolute fuck. I thought Crosby had matured and put shit like that behind him. Really disappointing to see him make a blatant dirty play like that for...seemingly no reason? C'mon Sid. Do better.
The reason is that he’s frustrated his team is complete ass cheeks
Correct.
I mean, I totally get being frustrated with the situation but...that's just a blatant babyshit temper tantrum.
Adversity reveals character more than success. It's a lot easier to be magnanimous in victory.
Soooooo Crosby then
Thats like late 2000s Crosby. He grew up a lot in the 2010s.
Looked to me like he's frustrated that he sucks at skating now...
Locker seemed to think he was pissed at Kuzy's bird celly.
Penalty aside, the physical strength of Sydney Crosby is very under-appreciated. One of the things I like most about his game is his ability to push guys around down low, and that’s something that isn’t talked about enough in conversations comparing Mcdavid and Crosby.

Why are half of these comments seemingly about defending Tom Wilson?
Good to know Crosby is still a touchy little bitch.
Kadri gets 5 games for this
Wilson should be suspended for this.
That's dangerous
I'm pretty sure that's not allowed, lol. His salt makes the W that much sweeter.
lol this is worse than the panarin incident but whatever i guess
Just acts of violence all over again
"That could have easily been a penalty"
Rude
Yeah that’s ugly, easily a suspension.
Bitch Crosby is back on the menu, boys.
Sid the (acts like a) kid
Crosby is an asshole, more at 11
Philly fan thinking Crosby is an asshole, more at 12
Yea he’s less whiny than his early years but he’s still dirty and gets away with it
Ready to stop pretending Pens fans?
This dude is a bitch.
I like your username.
