Was this dive by the islander last night the worst of the year?

Hey I'm not saying Vancouver dosn't have a diver or two, the same goes for the Habs, but if your going to label other teams that way, you'd better be sure your back yard is clean. All teams have players that dive and embellish the Bruins are no different.

Pretty bad dive no doubt, but there more than a few Pens going down real easy last night. Taveras stick check caused Malkin to drop as did Cizikas. Not to mention the two phantom calls on Cizikas for touching a player. Things even out.

Diving is much worse than throwing your stick

Does anybody have a full speed version?

E. Kane just had a big dive in the 2nd period on a Boyle hit. Where was the sniper?

When was this?

Edit: If you're talking about the boarding penalty, Kane wasn't looking and Boyle is a monster.

1. Great point.

2. In context of the game? Definitely not.

Don't understand how there's only a gif of it...

I love the dive where Ribiero throws his gloves up into the air. That might be my favorite.

That makes it more clear that he did in fact take a stick blade off the side of the ankle. Not saying he didn't go down easy, but he DID get hit in the ankle first. To me that makes it harder to crucify him like was done in the first 7 pages.

[11Alfredsson]

Looked like a blatant slash to me

[Tooth Rez]

am I not watching the same video? I'm trying so hard to see a tap on the ankle. Hilarious replay. What I CAN see is him turning his head towards the refs to see if his acting had paid off yet.

Ugh. Still not full speed.
