Laura Lee's Sin Bin - Sidney Crosby
Published 4 days, 11 hours ago
Description
Penguins are down 3-0 in a best of 7 series.
Wednesday night…During the game, Crosby got tied up in front and took a stick up high. He went down hard, drawing the official’s attention but instead of a power play, the call came back as offsetting minors, with Crosby tagged for embellishment. A call you almost never see tied to his name, which is why Penguins head coach Dan Muse was clearly frustrated behind the bench.
But after the game, Crosby took a different approach and had some fun with it.
“Yeah… I might’ve sold that one like I was auditioning for a daytime Emmy,”
...“Probably added a little extra on that one.”
He even admitted it might’ve been overdue.
“I’ve gone this long without that call, so I guess I was due. Tried to draw one… got a little more attention than I wanted.”
And inside the locker room?
“Guys were asking if I needed a stunt double.”
In the end, Crosby owned it.
“You’re trying to win sometimes you push it. That one? Maybe a bit too much. I’ll wear it.”
Could the broom be out tomorrow night in Philly?
