Ottawa Senators’ defenseman Erik Karlsson tried to sell a call, but he ended up taking a seat in the penalty box.

Karlsson was nabbed for diving in the later stages of the second period, after he embellished on a Douglas Murray holding call.

Karlsson threw his head back as Murray’s free hand held him up on a play in the Pittsburgh corner. Both players received minor penalties out of it all.
