What?

You haven't seen it then?

Prob for the best. Pretty graphic.
Lots of mullet-pulling.

That is very insensitive 4706

"Fag" is a word that can hurt.

Pittsburgh is a blue collar city.
They prefer "pipesmokers"

the canes announcers were terrible tonight biz, i was disappointed.. forslund is normally pretty good

basically called coburn a goon after he hit staal late, completely ignoring staal's slash that instigated it.. glasses were a tad too red tonight

Soooo...

Exactly like every other single team in the NHL's home announcers when listened to by a fan of the opposing team during every single game ever played?

Gotcha.

lol


C'mon man. Really?
Forslund wasn't on Versus tonight
The 'Canes were paying him.

Pretty sure I could have picked one or two spots on the Philly broadcast that I would have also disagreed with their assessment of. In fact, I'd be pretty willing to put money on it.

You want 100% neutrality on every play, turn off the sound.

2 points. Cha-ching!

That's a pretty feisty team you have there Biz. Love the never say die attitude that Maurice has installed. See you next week.

i dont need it to be neutral, but at least analyze what's happening.. i woulda been perfectly fine if he said something like 'staal gave him a lovetap and then coburn overreacted'.. but to not even mention the slash bothered me..

and then when the net came off right before the canes guy set a pick and they tried to rationalize out why there were no penalties.. just assumed they 'called' meszaros for interference too, but didnt feel like sending 2 guys to the box.. didnt think about the net coming off before the canes guy set a pick

there were a few others, i didnt write them down though, i've listened to the canes broadcasts before and they normally do a good job.. i just didnt think they did last night is all..

(they also compared skinner to jagr.. i think its a bit early to compare him to a top 20 forward of all-time)

2 points. Cha-ching!

i actually thought that was quite annoying :hockeysmile:

I'll make sure I mention this to Forslund next time I see him

The nerve. That bastard. Should really pay closer attention.



"i didnt write them down though"
lol
oh man, if it comes to the point where you are writing them down....
Definitely time to turn the sound off and just enjoy the game. :laugh: :D

right now they are fighting becuase rumours of changes are swirling
nothing like a trade looming to make someone try a little harder.

As exhibit "a" I introduce to you the four massive stinkers prior to the Pittsburgh game, complete with 3rd period meltdowns, 2-40 minuts of play with 20-40 minutes of pee-wee level efforts, and incredible levels of stupidity.

.. hence the "something's going to happen soon" feelings coming out of Rutherfords camp that loomed large this weekend before the Pitt game.
that tends to light a fire under some underperforming asses.

haha i dont think it'd ever get to that point..

but its his job, and they should be paying closer attention.. i'm sure a lot of us would KILL to be paid to watch/discuss the game.. IMO they should never get things wrong or leave things out. over the top expectation? perhaps, but thats how i feel.. when you have a job that millions covet, you better be damn good at it

All I have to say is how the hell did Claude Giroux last until the 20"s in 2006? A lot of GM's blew it big time.

Heck Neil Smith didn't even last the season in L.I..

:hockeysmile:

i bet a lot of people knew his name at least.. clarke :L
