NASHVILLE, TN -- Towards the end of a third period in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final Saturday night that saw the Nashville Predators and Pittsburgh Penguins combine for 70 penalty minutes, including five game misconducts, things appeared to get testy between star players Sidney Crosby and P.K. Subban.
The All-Stars tangled after Subban approached the Penguins captain from behind and spoke to him at a close distance.
Crosby responded with what Subban revealed after the game was a comment about his breath.
"He told me my breath smelled, but I don't know," Subban told Pierre Maguire during a televised postgame interview shortly after the Predators beat the Penguins, 5-1, to cut the defending champions' series lead to 2-1.
