GO SENS
head bounced right of the ice. I say he is concussed.
Please don't say that's dirty. It was close to the head, but that happens when your head's down. Don't know if he left his feet, can't tell, but didn't look like it. Get well Rusty.
Incoming Pens fans that are going to demand a suspension
88 game suspension
RIP
Clean hit
It's not dirty.. I get the reason for the hit.. but I still don't like it for some reason. I'm a Panthers fan so no bias
I think that Rust has had Phaneuf of Phaneuf
failed his driving test
brian campbell on rj umburger
Best defenceman to ever play, crazy that we are seeing it live we can tell the next generation all about the great phaneuf!
Good Lord, what a hit
clean hit. bad play by crosby if anyone is to blame. Let's Go PENS!
You can say he knocked the rust loose on that hit….
cleannnnnn hit !
Vintage phaneuf!
No rust on Phaneuf.
Can you say HOSPITAL PASS from Crosby? LOL
Dion Phagoof is ascensending to Double Dion
Old time Phaneuf !
pretty amazing how rust goes to the dressing room on a hit like that but the hit on Crosby and him going into the boards wasn't even looked at. How interesting.
You'd expect NHL players to keep their damn heads up. Most of the hits I've been seeing lately are purely because they are too busy looking at the damn ground
Elbow. Suspend him.
Pens In 5
pens should expect another player to be targeted next game I'm guessing
He's not that bad. Pens fans calling him a pylon cause they can't admit that this hit was beautiful.
Beautiful
Sens trapping it up, Phaneuf laying big hits… Pretty sure this is the New Jersey Devils…
Realtime looked ok, but replay with Phaneuf jumping up makes it dirty. Phaneuf could get a 1 game suspension but that is not likely.
Cleanest hit I have ever seen. God I miss dion
Reminded me of Scotty Stevens…..just the hit, not his game.
Good CLEAN hit. That's how it's done. Hope Rust is ok, absolutely got WREKT.
Classic Phaneuf!
Pens fans think this is dirty lmao
Excellent performance by Dion !!!!!!
Scott Stevens hit Kozlov in the 1995 SCF in almost the exact same spot in the exact same way. This was clean. I'm a Devils fan, but I can admit a lot of Scott Steven's hits would not be legal today.
suicide pass by Crosby rip Rust
I always love the reaction from the teammates on the bench
His brain is being knocked around in his skull on that one. stupid pass by that idiot Crosby. Throws the puck to a guy who is going full speed into two defenders. Has to end like this. Devestating hit. Dangerous as heck.
nice pass sidney crosby … clearly this game is in the stone ages
