Yikes. Love Crosby and the Pens, but shitty move by Letang. Can’t blame the refs for not catching everything, it’s a fast game. But hope the league does something
Brutal. That’s cheating. Just brutal
Should miss 3 games for unsportsmanlike conduct.
Save that shit for soccer. Get this out of the league.
This seems to have been happening a lot this month, but this is the most ridiculous one. Suspend him to send a message.
I don’t want this to be a thing in Hockey
Somebody tell me again why there shouldn’t be off ice officials who can call and review penalties?
I’d literally give them a reason to call a penalty next shift out
Sure I’ll grab your stick and slap myself
Worst officiating in all of sports
Waiting for a better angle
Yep. Control your stick so someone can’t skate by, grab your stick and high stick themself.
take my helmet, eh? I take your stick!
Need to begin giving out fines for this kind of shit
Players caught doing this should face at minimum a 2 game suspension.
That is some soccer bullshit there. Shame Letang. Shame!
Like Fox on the weekend, high sticking yourself is now a thing.
Letang is turning into such a bitch its hilarious.
Against the leafs he got a 10 minute misconduct for being a baby
Disgusting. That is beer league.
Same thing happened during a Boston game. Somehow, they (opposing team, not boston) walked into a stick and got rewarded for it.
He won’t get suspended cause the league is soft but you better believe the refs are gonna get one back on him next time for embarrassing them
Penalties should be reviewable for embellishment. If it looks bizarre, review it and assess the penalty to the embellisher. Letang does this shit a lot.

I’ve never loved a sport but hated a league more.
Yeah it’s a lot easier watching a close up replay in slo-mo to do our at home officiating. Imagine putting on the skates and calling a game at full speed. NHL referees are incredible at what they do you can analyze every play in every sport and find problems on every play.
The Pens are easily the biggest whiners in the league.
Both sides pulled that move last night
Both teams made this same play last night. Made it harder to watch.
Should be suspended for that bull$hit
After you watch it a few times it really starts to just look like Letang didn’t notice the stick and tried to get it out of the way at the last second and hit it into his own face. You can see kaprisovs blade turn point towards Letang face just before Letang touches the stick which would definitely startle you.
Anyone see hartman’s antics in the same game?
Now show Hartman’s “interference”
Really not surprised this came from Letang.
Leteng hand facing down pushes the stick and Kaprisov resisted forcing the stick up into Letangs face. It’s why Letangs arm collapses. Look at Kirils right elbow come up preventing the lever action. This is on 97. Don’t forget to bring up Hartmans embellished double minor later in the game where he went into the locker room immediately then magically came out and kept getting confused which nostril had the pretend bleed. Refs gave that the wild a chance that they couldn’t cash in on.
