The only thing that bothers me about this is that he appears to have said it to a teammate, and that teammate brought it to social media. I could see this being a bigger issue if he was out there Tweeting or posting his thoughts, but I think he probably said it in anger within his own locker room, and some clown teammate took it beyond the locker room to the media (Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Tweet they showed wasn't from Voynov personally).That pisses me off. Shut up and play your game.
The hit on Brown is fine. It was during the course of a game, and the man was wearing an opposing team sweater/
But opening your mouth about Quick is crap of the highest kind.
I say that stick ends up a good foot up Voynov's rear.
By the way, he didn't say anything while winning the cup. And I hope he apologizes for calling Quick out. Now every team in the NHL will be crying foul when they play the Kings. Especially during the playoffs. With the Dux screaming the loudest.
It was weak of him to say, for sure, but I would give him a pass for being angry as the home team with all of that pressure and within the confines of his own locker with his fellow countrymen.
That looked like a goal to me when I watched it, and was pretty shocked when they overturned it. Only a few whistles later was it explained regarding the net issue.
You guys said it already, but at the end of the day, the game was still tied with 6 minutes or so left, they had all of OT, and then the shootout to decide it, so the lack of accountability will only hurt Russia going forward.
