Mr. Popular aka Matt Cooke just got a penalty for tripping. Not too surprisingly, the Twitter reactions were a little bit angry.
Still, not all the Twitter buzz was negative during the first period.
Again, PHT will keep you updated on this unique situation tonight.
sarah_connors: You’re a joke, Cooke. A serious joke.
StarsScene: Jeez Cooke... I mean I know being a D-Bag comes easy to you... but really?!?
mlse: Oh, and now Cooke with a slewfoot. But he’s not a dirty player.
Jeff Marek: Say what you want about Cooke, he stepped up to a much bigger, tougher guy in Thornton tonight.
The Penguins currently lead the game 1-0, if that matters.
Update: One more quick addition because it made me laugh.
cupofchowdah: You can have your Olympic hockey, give me my Neanderthal Hockey League
