Well, no more epic arguments between Milbury and Strachan anymore, as Strachan's been dropped.

Dang!

I loved watching them get all hot and bothered around each-other; talk about repressed sexual tension. I wish they had made a segment with just the two of them called “Two Dumb Idiots Yelling”

I did enjoy their arguing, but it bothered me that I felt I had to side with Milbury.
I’d love it if they could get someone who’s actually smart on the show.

That's the problem with hockey broadcasting (and sports in general)

All of the people who actually know anything about the game have jobs as coaches, GMs, Scouts, etc. Like honestly, Pierre Macguire, my grandma knows more about hockey than him and she’s senile.

hmm

then I nominate Chemmy as his replacement. He knows more about hockey and can maintain the amusement factor.
In fact, let’s replace Milbury with Julian, too.

Lol

Then the rest of Canada would hate the Leafs and HNIC even more because of the insane bias that would create… so yeah definitely a good idea!

I just can’t resist it-

He was dropped like a hot potato.

Not upset about this in the least. Strac is an arrogant idiot who I will be happy to not see on my TV. If only they could figure out that Milbury sucks too.

Good move

Now that he’s gone, aside from Milbury, Healy, Friedman, Campbell, Hughson, Simpson, Millen, Stock, Hrudey, and Weekes, HNIC has a decent broadcast.

yup, that about sums it up

Simpson isnt so bad if he isnt trying to cuddle with Hughson the whole game

I like Hrudey, he’s quite insightful.

Hrudey does say somethings very insightful but he bothers me
PJ stock is a dummy but he is at least entertaining, like a coked out chipmunk

Does anyone remember when PJ was on Popular Mechanics for kids like 10 years ago as a hockey prospect? I always think about him taking shots on Elisha Cuthbert whenever he comes on… … BCWW.

Just remember, everyone, we could be subjected to Pierre Maguire on HNIC broadcasts. In light of that, I’m pretty content with things as they are.

McGuire would be around the middle of the HNIC pack.

They seem to have sedated him a little bit, that way Gord Miller can interrupt him to call the game.

Well, on the bright side Strachan can now devote more time to creating youtube videos.

It’s also good to see this season start hasn’t wiped out DGB’s skills.

I wonder if there was heat with him calling out Glen Healy on the pad-sizing issue?

by Robot Godzilla on Oct 21, 2009 4:52 PM EDT reply actions  

I keep refreshing this fanshot in the hopes it will be retitled as “Al Strachan dropped on his head from top of stove”.
Alas, it hasn’t changed yet.

It would have to be a mighty big stove to have any impact.

Sorry, I confused “dropped” with “piledrove from stove to the floor”.
