One of the stories that got people talking towards the end of the Montreal Canadiens season was when forward Brendan Gallagher directly accused Tim Stützle of constantly diving and exaggerating his falls in order to get the attention of officials.
Yesterday, during the Edmonton Oilers-Los Angeles Kings game, goaltender Mike Smith did a great imitation of Stützle and really exaggerated one of his falls.
See the result by scrolling to the right:
So much for subtlety! Verdict: the referee took the bait and the Kings' forward was given a penalty on the sequence.
