*WATCH* Crosby pissed off after bad change
The Penguins were playing the Leafs on Saturday, Mitch Marner is on a 16-game point streak after he scored that beautiful goal.
As you can see in the video, Crosby is caught off guard on a bad change and is absolutely pissed off about the way things ended, as he's caught kicking the board a few second later. It felt like the Penguins captain had higher standard for himself.
Later on, Crosby was seen leaving the bench shortly after and did not make his way back to the bench before the 2nd period started. When asked about it he said :
"No. I don't know what you're talking about there," Sid said with a big grin on his face
Crosby denied that the events were related, since the broadcaster had implied Crosby might've gotten injured after the event. He said that it was a simple equipment malfunction.
Clearly, we can interpret that the captain expected better from his team, then a simple mental mistake. The Penguins ended up losing (4-1) for a second time against the Leafs in the last weeks. You can surely expect the captain to bounce back in their next meeting against Toronto.
