It turns out that the 'Special Vlasic' is a fairly expensive dish.

It's late in the game, you've been working hard on ice for almost three periods and you're starting to feel a little peckish. This is the situation in which Vancouver Canucks forward Antoine Roussel found himself at the end of the third period against the San Jose Sharks on Friday night.

With only 40 seconds left and his team was 4-0, he made a well-executed counter-test to Marc-Edouard Vlasic of the Sharks. As you can imagine, Vlasic did not really like this game in the last moments of a match that could have lasted more than 10 minutes.

In the scrum that followed, as the officials tried to separate the many players involved, Roussel's actions seem to confirm that he is not a vegan.

Vlasic made sure that our eyes do not deceive us after the match.

Can we really blame Roussel here? Vlasic's nickname is literally "Pickles" and his hand was just there for nibbling. It was a recipe for a disaster.

With the minors that he accumulated on the game for cross checks and the brutes, as well as for the 10-minute misconduct, Roussel finished the game with 18 penalty minutes and the first dip in the best guest cloakroom shower from SAP Center.
