Giroux cheap shot elbo

[Skatebyu66]

Wow.. the golden boy is not getting his way and nothing says he is nothing more than belwo average in this series than a dirty elbo. Maybe if he shot the puck that hard he and his mates would be moving on instead of being abused by the devils.

He is a one trick pony and should be given a game for his cheap shot. if it were ANY team or ANY player that did that garbage b/c they were getting their a** handed the them, the flyers would be crying for justice...esp if it were a Pen.

Giroux did have a shorty and an assist on the PP.

It seems as if he learned a few pointers from Malkin.

There would not have been a call on Malkin

@AlaskaFlyerFan

ah yes, good point

You have to have a lot of gall to be a Pens fan and call anybody out over an elbow or hit to the head.

Presumably even Yinzers know the difference between a shoulder and an elbow. Pay attention

Elbow???

You've officially become PenVader . Nowhere to be found when your teams getting trounced, then stick out your tongue and "nah,nah, nah nah nah" when we're losing to a totally different opponent. I hope for your sake you're under the age of 15.

Giroux's hit on Zubrus wasn't a "cheap shot elbow". Yeah it was a shoulder to the chin but I don't believe he had an intent to injure so there's nothing cheap about it. If you watch the play he's upset about the occurrences leading up to that play and seems to me to be trying to line up a bit of a hit on Zubrus to make a statement for the game, not injure the man. He was penalized and suspended. It's over.

That's not Giroux's style. Hartnell yes... Simmonds made use of the elbow in LA a lot but seems to have abandoned it in Philly, or Coburn likes to bring the arms up too. Hell every team from mites to the NHL has players who do it and get away with it or don't get away with it. But I wouldn't be throwing stones at Giroux for it, he's not that type of player.
