What was dirty about it was the head contact. At least back off a guy when he can't see you coming, show respect even if you don't like them. Could have been a lot worse if Crosby was farther away from the boards and was pushed even harder into them. Looks like his head snapped backed.
oh my god the pittsburgh announcers are the worst fucking commentators in sports his stick barely made contact with his skate so shut the fuck up with this "canopener" crap. Crosby got buried, end of story.
it's a hit from behind, but it was legal. There was no malicious intent, MDZ just took him out of the play, it's what you do in hockey, not like you'd know.
wasn't dirty. it was Del Zotto plastering him on the boards to take him out of the play. It looked "canopener" cause he was trying to strip crosby of the puck. I hate crosby as much as anyone else but I know a clean or dirty hit when I see one. it was clean.
NYR Logo but your name has Ovechkin in it o_O? Still, I couldn't agree more with this comment if i tried. There's a reason the Penguins are universally hated outside of Pittsburgh and bandwaggoner/fair-weather hockey fans, and it's not because they're good
He won the cup with the Bolts, made the playoffs all but 1 year with the Rangers, and got to the ECF in 2011-12 season… Furthermore, everyone might accept him because he's a great player, but ffs he's seriously looking for a call from the refs there?? I've seen harder/dirtier hits in my house league that don't get called, he is just a whiner, no denying that, and until he can change himself, he and the Pengs will be hated by real hockey fans outside of Pittsburgh

Well they are the best "homers" in sports. Its the only thing those two are good at because neither of them actually knows anything about hockey
Hockeygod98 – what was dirty about that hit?

crosby is a little bitch
Clean hit. Crosby is a chump and soft as baby stool.
Little bitch that humiliated the rags that night.
talk to me when he isn't either whining like a little girl or hawking the ref for a call

There's a difference between riding the body in and smashing the head in.

Pens take all 3 meetings so far this year. U mad ?

The penguins announcers are garbage and so is crosby
The only people who choke in the playoffs are the Penguins goalies.
