Logan Couture wasn't in the mood to admire Sidney Crosby's faceoff technique after Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday night.
The San Jose Sharks forward called out the Pittsburgh Penguins captain, who cleanly won the draw that led to teammate Conor Sheary's overtime winner.

Logan Couture says Crosby wins offensive zone faceoffs so cleanly because he cheats. Says he gets away with it because of who he is.

“He times them and (the referees) don’t kick him out for some reason, probably because of who he is," Couture told reporters, according to ESPN's Craig Custance.
Crosby won 71 percent of his faceoffs in Game 2, and 56 percent in Game 1.
He led the league with 472 offensive-zone draws won during the regular season, and entered Wednesday leading all playoff skaters in the same category.
The Penguins take a 2-0 series lead to San Jose for Game 3 on Saturday.
