Sam Gagner gave up on a play against the Hawks last week, kinda similar. Hossa was beating him and he took a penalty, he totally stopped skating just to whine and complain to the ref. He completely stopped skating resulting in Hossa beating him and going in for a goal.
Start watching at 2:40 mark for how he totally gives up on the play.

Honestly, think this play is just as bad as Kostitsyn
