Couture claims Crosby "cheats" on faceoffs

[rataylor22]

Does Crosby cheat on faceoffs? Yes

Does every centerman (including Couture) cheat on faceoffs? Yes

Does it matter? No

Is Couture whining? Yes

Is he doing it hoping to influence the refs? Yes

Couture has been terrible in face-offs all play-offs, not only against Crosby. He should work on it, improve on his lousy 43% and stop crying.

Couture has won 4 of the 7 face-offs he's taken this post-season against Crosby.

I remember in the NFL a few years ago, an offensive lineman who I can't remember was called for "Holding" twice in pretty critical moments. As he ran off the field, the coach gave him shit "what the hell? You were Holding!!!". The lineman's response was perfect, "I Hold every single play"...

It's no different here.

Might be, i didn't check it, so why is he crying at all? He must be terrible against other players, otherwise he wouldn't be 43% overall.

That's where we are now? I must be a Pens fan because i say it's bullshit that the linesman threw the puck on Crosby's stick? So fans of all other 29 teams are thinking he did? I doubt it.

Btw Cullen and Thornton have been even better in face-offs. Do they have a gun on the ice? Are is there a small chance, that they are just really good in it?

That….and the fact you have a Pittsburgh jersey for a picture.
