Wesley Myron isn't in the nhl, but he's the biggest diver of all time. He dives during every shift in the bchl.

Marchand and Kesler are two of the biggest divers you will ever find.

There should be a stat just for these guys: "Dives per game (DPG)" to see who wins.

In before someone who hasn't watched Vancouver in the last two years say Burrows. That would be purely I blindly hate Canucks statement.

Kesler yes and it is absolutely upsetting.
I've even caught Henrik Sedin doing it once or twice. But not more than that, Burrows absolutely not.

I put Letang down but not Crosby, because he has gotten better at not diving IMO.

Saw sarcasm edit.

I'm disappointed.

Kesler, Subban and Marchand are off the top of my head.

If you are willing to broaden "divers" to "floppers," I'll include David Clarkson. He's brutal.

Subban isn't a diver, he's a troll. An important distinction.

There may be others, but Brown is the worst, so therefore the others are irrelephant, they have no porpoise.
