Yeah, this is definitely from last season. You hear Pierre throw it back to “Doc and Edso” at the end of this clip, and Olczyk wasn’t in the building on Sunday.

Milbury clearly loves to take shots at the Caps and is obnoxious because he says stupid things just to be controversial.

But I dislike McGuire for a different reason. I don’t find him to be particularly biased, but he gets way too caught up in the love for stars. He’s way too excitable for big games or any time a star for any team is playing and just goes insane hyping them up. The weird thing is that McGuire actually does know a good amount about the sport and is pretty insightful and reasonable (something you can never say about Milbury) when he is a guest analyst on XM Home Ice. There’s just something about calling games that brings out the worst in him.

Can’t listen at work but Milbury is an ass. He does say good things about the Caps fairly regularly these days, I’m sure Ovi rightly still thinks he’s a cat tho.

Can you think of any other major sport where the people on the biggest stages who are paid to talk about the sport tear down entire teams or imply or state that they are weak organizations on such a regular basis – their own league – with that airtime? Seems like league leadership would want to replace that talk with more constructive broadcasting to the masses.

But as long as Ovi keeps nailing people while leading in points he will be topical/controversial/newsworthy to the league and people should probably expect it.

I’m sure Ovi rightly still thinks he’s a cat tho.

rec’d for reminding me of that exchange. AO at his off-ice best.

Milbury should shave his head so that they can put their heads together and make a literal ass out of themselves.
