RALEIGH, N.C. — Marc-Edouard Vlasic pleaded innocent to charges of embellishment. He should consider hiring Pete DeBoer to be his lawyer.
TSN analyst Darren Dreger lit a fire on Twitter Wednesday when he suggested that Vlasic should be added to the NHL’s embellishment list for drawing a questionable high-sticking penalty that led to the game-winning goal in the Sharks 5-4 win over the Nashville Predators Tuesday night.
The highly-respected Canadian reporter made the statement as he shared a tweet from former-Predators forward Mike Fisher showing a slow-motion video of the alleged infraction. In the video, Vlasic ducks and grabs his face after Viktor Arvidsson’s stick waved past his head.
