It is never ok for a white HOCKEY player to smash the head of a Black (or any other race other than white...) on the ice or anywhere else!!!!!!

After watching game five and seeing what happened how could the REF stand by and watch Crosby pushing down with his stick and glove on Subban's head .And not doing a single thing about it until Subban got the upper hand sound kind of funny ,That a water bottle just slipped out of his hand and he was on the way down on the first penalty of the game .That is going to cause a rash oh hate and someone going to get hurt or end there hockey playing career.

Fair referring is needed in what is supposed to be a professional game.

Regardless of who would have won the game--i expect fairness in hockey games. The behavior and one sided calls resulted in what appeared to be an unfair game. This is professional sport and I expect the officials to be professional and do their due diligence to call a fair game.

The officiating of the 2017 Stanley Cup Finals has been atrocious at best. The favouritism and bias shown to Sidney Crosby has every one and I mean everyone, except the Penguins faithful, up in arms. All we the fans want is equality. Calls being called against each team equally and I have not seen that this year at all. No one player should be treated any different than the others. If you watch the officiating especially in game 5 and don't see anything wrong....then Sidney Crosby does have a seperate set of rules for him. Can we please have refs and linemen that are honest and fair?

This behavior teaches children who look up to these hockey players that bullying and unfair conduct is acceptable. Yes, hockey is a rough sport but trying to give another player a concussion is disgusting, offensive and dangerous to say the least. The NHL seriously needs to address this issue!!!!

Crosby should be fined , and suspended for the remainder of the games, and the official should be fired for not stopping it ,plus the water bottle incident come on really!

Crosby wasn't stopped at all after smashing subbans head onto ice. Subban had to stop him. then Subban gets penalty for having to do refs job.

These officials have been caught once after game 1 calling the game one side a s they do it again game 5. These refs need to be fired and bring in new refs next year.

Game 5 was the worst officiated game I have ever seen! Sidney Crosby is talented and also the dirtiest player in hockey. The NHL needs to watch the entire game (5), particularly when Crosby was on top of Subban, pounding his head on the ice. Why wasn't a penalty called on that, when a referee was watching it from a few feet away?!

The slamming of P.K.Subban's head onto the ice with a ref just standing next to them and watching then doing nothing is unacceptable!!! Crosby should have been ejected from the game! That was the most piss poor referring I have ever seen. Croaby throws a watter bottle on the ice and again nothing gets done to his precious highness! Your on sided calls have got to be stopped and you refs need ro be fined!!!! Get new referees in there and make it fair!!!!!

I want to know why Sidney Crosby isn't disciplined you slamming PK Subban's head into the ice and, later, for throwing a water bottle onto the ice.
