Logan Couture accuses Sidney Crosby of cheating on faceoffs
PITTSBURGH -- Sidney Crosby won 71 percent of his faceoffs Wednesday night in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final -- the last of which led to the Penguins' winning goal.
After the 2-1 overtime victory, coach Mike Sullivan praised Crosby's hard work for his faceoff success.
Sharks center Logan Couture had a different explanation.
"He cheats,'' Couture said. "He gets away with that. He's Sidney Crosby.''
Pressed for an explanation of Crosby's methods, Couture didn't back down:
"He times them, and yet they don't kick him out for some reason; probably because of who he is.''.........

Tonight's game is very important for both teams. If the Pens win tonight, they can go back to Pittsburgh with a 3-1 series lead and potentially have a stranglehold on the series. If the Sharks win, then we're all tied up and that could give them even more confidence and momentum as the series plays out. Hopefully the Pens can pull it off tonight.
#LetsGoPens
Come on, Pens. Don't give them any momentum heading back to Pittsburgh!!
OK, I have to ask a question. Watching the Stanley Cup with the NBC announcers I swear Mike Milbury is the Phil Simms of the hockey world. Whoever is playing against Pittsburgh is the greatest team ever and can do no wrong. Am I wrong?
Also, sick of them saying the "Shark" tank is the loudest in the league. It is all piped in with loud rock music and lights. The fans are not that loud, but I guess maybe the Indy Colts audio visual guy got a new job.
OK, done bitching, LETS GO PENS!

You are not wrong about any of the above... Milbury hates the Pens.
And this is how much they like hockey out there - http://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/1038490
Nailed it.
1-0 Pens after One.
Geno!!!!! 2-0 Pens
In Murray we trust.
Win it on home ice for Marianne (HTG)!!!
Pens take Game Four 3-1.
One win away, but it's not over yet.
Let's close this out in Pittsburgh.
One more win!!!!!!!!
Hello, old friend...
Geno finally gets on the score sheet; 1 goal, 1 assist
Last night's game was a good game by both teams. The Sharks had quite a rush in the 3rd period, but the Pens were able to handle it.
Other than the soft goal that was allowed, Matt was absolutely fantastic last night. He made some great saves with traffic around him and from close up shots right in front of him. He did a great job.
Here is a fun fact. The Steelers, Pirates or Penguins have not won a championship in Pittsburgh since the 1960 World Series. There have been 11 championships won by those three teams since then. Hopefully, we can witness history Thursday night.
You have to seriously consider Kessel for the Conn Smythe... He has been on FIRE along with that entire 3rd line.
