In last night's game between the New York Rangers and the Pittsburgh Penguins, Sidney Crosby confronted Igor Shesterkin behind his net, which led to an altercation between them. Crosby was following the puck and tried to get past Shesterkin behind the net, but the veteran hit a wall. He pinned Crosby against the wall using his back, then turned around to push him away with his stick. <q>Igor Shesterkin not afraid to give it to Sidney Crosby</q> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/JLazzy23/status/1774958244177297851'> </a></blockquote></div> Later, Crosby commented on their short clash, saying it was more about the heat of the moment than anything else. <q>I think he's just trying to get himself in the game, obviously we had the lead, and he didn't see a lot of shots in the 2nd, we didn't get a lot. I think he was trying to create a little emotion. I've had a few run ins with goalies in this building before, so I've tried to learn from that a little bit and just try to worry about playing. But we were just competing out there and I don't think there's anything to that. You know that's one that usually doesn't happen, but you know, that's part of the game. </q> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/JLazzy23/status/1774986098667552971'> </a></blockquote></div> The Penguins are having a tough season, and they'll likely will miss the playoffs for the second straight year.
