Scott Christopherson "throat slashing"

I'm pretty sure he's saying "game over" as he's doing it.. Least that's what it looks like he's saying from the replay
I thought that it was exactly this.
THIS is a throat slash gesture. What Scotty did was nothing close.

I didn't think for a second it was a throat slash, not even close to his throat. My concern was Vanderbeeken throwing the ball against the backstop after a foul. I hope Coach has a word with him about that.
It was not a throat slashing. Was shaking his hand in front of his chin, couldn't tell for sure if he was saying "Game over" or "Damn I'm on Fire". Either way he was doing it to the ISU bench.
I didn't see it, but was he maybe shaking his hand in front of his mouth and blowing on it, like "damn my hands are on fire!!"???
If you replay it, you can clearly see Scotty say "it's over" as he's making the gesture. Sounds like the hawk fans are just being a little overly sensitive!...... And I love it!
I took it as the "cut" sign. As in, "cut it, its over". Not a throat slash, just a "game over" sort of comment to the bench.
That said, I don't care if it was a throat slash. We need our guys to play with confidence, and I love the emotion. Obviously you want to avoid T's, but whatever....he lit them up for 30 and deserved the moment.

DJK was sighted at the game. He was talking on his cellphone.
All the Fall sports seniors were honored too...the dumb hawkfans would only cheer for the football players even when the announcer asked them to wait until the end to show appreciation (DJK was not in that group). It was embarassing and such a scene into the cult of Hawkeye celebrity. High school part 3.

He did the same thing in the Drake game and it appeared they T'd him up, but in the TO Freddie and the official sorted it out. Scottie was talking/motioning to his teammates on the bench. If you watch it tonight, he was doing the same thing and looking to the bench when he went to his neck. Then as he turned to run up court, he motioned to his his shoulders like he was saying game over. He's gotta watch that, or he'll get T'd up later in the season. I loved it though!!!
