Philadelphia Flyers center Claude Giroux bit the jersey of Florida Panthers defenseman Erik Gudbranson during a stoppage of play in Thursday night's game at the Wells Fargo Center.
OK, technically that's not a penalty, but this deserves one simply because it's so weird. What possesses Giroux to do this? Is this supposed to give him some kind of edge? Or is he just unable to control his animal instinct?
You would think that the outbreak of mumps spreading around the NHL would be enough to make Giroux think twice about something like this. Apparently not.
