What surprise me is that I can think of many other occasion where Crosby (and other player) said "pussy" and "bitch" and the reaction was either "lol" or "um, I'd not a fan of him saying it" without much uproar. There's a gifset on tumblr where Crosby mouthing "pussy" is overlayed by a cat emoji (wich was amusing to me). I remember this year the first game Oilers/Flyers I think, when the camera zoomed on McDavid insulting Manning (who broke his clavicle last year) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrmuW3ZY0OQ at 0.09 - 0.12 "Fuck you you fucking pussy"

Just sometimes fandom takes a thing and just decide that it's time to be pissed off. Why now ? Also I saw a few people on tweeter, reddit and tumblr who seems so happy to just take a side and gleefully explain why other should feel bad. I may have an Internet burn-out but I'm just tired of having to always hear people wanking about their high moral ground.
