  1. Dirty hit. Malkin is garbage. The whole penguins team would be nothing without crosby. NHL officiating this year is horrible. The NHL continues to wonder why no one watches.

  2. Meh, when you know there are no consequences for your actions go ahead and rock 'em sock 'em

  3. If a penguin drops a jet with an illegal hit, how many games will he get for a suspension? 0 or 4…
    Depends if he's an all-star or not

  4. See, to promote Crosby the NHL allows his team to commit dirty hits with no punishment. This has been going on for years.

  5. Interference, charging and targeting the head. No suspension (not surprise!) because the NHL wants to promote Crosby relentlessly.

  6. I originally thought it was clean, in real time. But yeah, not a good hit by Geno. Although, I'm happy to see him take responsibility for it and accept Wheeler's challenge to fight in the next match up.

  7. Clean hit. Get the fk up Wheeler you little troll. That hit was harmless and you crumbled to the ground like a slinky

  8. "….the penguins got tired of the jets playing the body…." So he does that? Wilson or marchand would've gotten 20-25 games for that hit? Why the different set of standards?

  9. Stupid he wasn’t suspended for this. If it was the other way around a jets player would’ve been suspended I bet. NHL favourites! Then the next meeting the bully penguins call up Tom sestito just to be even more dirty. Be nice if the jets hit cindy that way.
