Everyone paid attention yesterday when Sidney Crosby, arguably the best player in the game today, dropped the gloves with the Blue Jackets' Brandon Dubinsky. It was surprising because Crosby is not known as a fighter, in fact most markets outside of Pittsburgh seem to view him as a soft player. Brandon Dubinsky's comments on Friday did nothing to help quell those rumors. The comments were originally reported by Shawn Mitchel of the Columbus Dispatch, and according to Mitchel Dubinsky stated that Crosby told him he was both tired, and his wrist hurt during the fight. He's not outright calling Crosby soft, but it certainly seems like that's the picture he's trying to paint. For those of you who missed the fight you can see it here.
