Edmonton Oilers defenseman Vincent Desharnais didn't settle for just a dominant win against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday afternoon. He also aimed to make a statement in the closing moments of the game.
Vincent Desharnais Goes After Sidney Crosby
Despite the Oilers holding a commanding 4-0 lead, Desharnais decided to take liberties with Penguins captain Sidney Crosby late in the third period. This move put the Oilers down a man, adding some unnecessary drama to an already decided game.
While some may question the need for Desharnais's actions given the scoreline, it's worth noting that the game had been physical throughout, likely contributing to heightened tensions.
Crosby didn't offer much resistance to Desharnais's aggression, resulting in a 2-minute power play for the Penguins. However, they failed to capitalize, and the game ended with the Oilers securing a shutout victory.
