Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin confronts Sidney Crosby after blatant dive
Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin didn't take kindly to Penguins captain Sidney Crosby diving to try and sell a penalty to the referees, and he let him know!
While the Detroit Red Wings and Pittsburgh Penguins may not be as fierce of rivals as they once were after meeting in consecutive years in the Stanley Cup Final, there still is some animosity on the ice!
During tonight's game at Little Caesars Arena, Penguins captain Sidney Crosby (who Red Wings fans still love to hate despite having not met in the postseason since 2009) fell to the ice rather easily when trying to draw a penalty against Detroit captain Dylan Larkin.
The on-ice officials decided Larkin's actions merited a penalty, much to the chagrin of the crowd and to Larkin, who went over and had words for Crosby, and Red Wings fans were loving it!
Earlier in his career, Crosby developed a reputation for being a "whiner" who would often complain to try and draw penalties, and Red Wings fans will well remember his blatant dive after being tapped from behind by Kirk Maltby run the 2008 Final.
