[Hawkeye's-911T]

There is a tendency to forget Wayne had a bit of a reputation to whine but as 'Buck' points out, one would inevitably get some face-time with one D. Semenko if one became overly rambunctious & took liberties with his star teammate. Crosby gets his share of hacks & whacks & when he starts to bitsch to the officials as he has doesn't have the luxury of a 'designated minder', some folks get upset. You have to know Crosby is no angel & more than likely gets his licks in somewhere along the line. I believe it is all part & parcel of the 'sending a message thing' to the on-ice officials

We all agree on one point; the guy can flat-out play.
I ain't bettin' against the series being over Thurs. so 'Buck's' prediction of "Pens in 5" is looking pretty good at the moment.

Cheers
