a few posters here (small minority) have earned a reputation of calling every time a canuck gets hurt a dive
some of the one's saying Alberts dove I remember called Mason Raymond a diver off a high stick (Raymond lost two teeth)
I don't think it was a dirty hit, I think it was incidental and his head probably hit the glass or his the forearm caused the concussion, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a concussion (with Shanhan in charge it will probably be a suspension though)
I can assure you even with the mildest of concussions the brain would be unable to to even come up with the idea of 'selling a call' less than a second after
