Another memorable quote from the CBC's Chris Cuthbert, this time commenting on a high sticking penalty called against Lubomir Sekoracs of the Minnesota Wild in overtime against the Vancouer Canucks. Vancouver's Trent Klatt would score on the ensuing powerplay to win the game. "I don't know what he was thinking. His stick wasn't anywhere near the puck, so it's not that he tried to bat it out of the air and missed. It's more like there was a pretty girl in the stands and he just got distracted for a moment."

Yup. Sounds likely to me. Guys get distracted by pretty girls. Guys get benched by their coaches for taking bonehead overtime penalties.
