Yea, Petgrave getting a standing O from the arena was a pretty stupid, disgusting act by the fans, showing support for the guy who intentionally stuck his skate out (but unintentionally made contact with an area he didn't mean to).
I don't care if Petgrave was the biggest saint in the world before the incident (certainly wasn't). Didn't deserve the racial attacks and threats, but that certainly doesn't justify getting a standing O for a show of support (basically a slap in the face of Adam's family, who all felt the play was unnatural).
Hope they all feel a little shame and embarrassment after this announcement. At least it'll give Petgrave a little lasting memory while in prison (if he ends up being charged/sentenced)
Stupid, stupid, stupid, reckless play
