It seems like an anglicism. Which is fine, France French also has plenty of anglicisms. I just learned that they don't really use the word ''vedette,'' but that's used all the time in Quebec sports media.
It’s not really an anglicism though. It’s in every french dictionnary. Excitation is a state that is way more than just sexual. French people mostly only use it for the sexual connations apparently, but using it in other ways is still a proper use of the word.
 
McCagg on TSN690 stammering on trying to explain why Slaf is better and why Wright isn't as good.
He called me out on YouTube haha, every word that comes out of mcHacks mouth sounds identical to bergevin. No wonder they both suck at evaluating talent.
If you have time watch Tony marianos recent podcast with mccagg, its nauseating. Mariano said he didn't want to repeat the same mistake again in terms of "patching" and wants us to be bad again next year and lists off a bunch of cup winning 1-2 punches down the middle. McHack then responds saying "price and slaf, your two building blocks" Like WTF !!!
Absolutely clueless and the man literally can't say one good thing about Wright. He throws jabs at wright any chance he can.

/rant over f*** mccagg
 
Habs are thin on premium assets. Who can possibly be dealt that might be of interest to Dorion?

Anderson/Dvorak(+) and that's about it. Maybe Allen?

But why do you need to meet Slaf tomorrow if he's not your pick? The ONLY reason is to tell him in advance, in fairness, that he's not going to be your pick. And wish him good luck.

I still believe Wright is the pick but Cooley is close 2nd. Imo, it all depends on the Lecavalier call to Wright. Vinnie said it was hard for him in the season before he was drafted first. He called Wright specifically for that reason and he wanted to know how he felt. Given that Wright had a "so-so" year, I'm wondering if the team feels good enough with what he said.

I watch every Marinaro podcasts. I like the podcast. But I didnt watch that one because I couldn't sit through a McCagg episode.

It’s all BS - say Sens want DeBrincat and Hawks agree to a deal w 7OA involved. He’s only got 2-years left on his deal as RFA, would he agree to extension to play in Ottawa? Does Dorion have the go ahead to cough up in the neighborhood of $10M on a long term deal?

Both sides are trying to play Minister of Misinformation to drive acquisition cost in their favor.

I expect at end of the day we’ll hear the usual “there simply wasn’t much going on”…

It's perfect. We need him to reach peak McCagg. The suspense is drawing him out of his shell, he's going to say some crazy shit if we draft Wright, and then Wright will ruin his whole career. It's happening, people, it's finally happening.

He is really a grifting moron, peddling his little site and going around making outlandish, contrarian statements to bring attention to himself. Who honestly believes a guy who can barely describe Wright has watched him play “over 60 games this year” and only cycles back over and over to a couple of his playoff games when stumbling through his obvious bias riddled “analysis”.

It‘s almost concerning and definitely pathetic to me how much this glorified troll of a “scout” seems to have this utter disdain for an 18 y/o. It’s way over the top. It’s truly a wonder how he keep getting on these little segments with how unprofessional he comes off.
 
Forget that, both have a NTC for 5 and 8 teams. Ottawa is probably on both lists.


Late to the party guys, the habs and Ott talking 7OA and Anderson and Dvorak going the other way??
Seems steep....clears 10M for the next few years, but man........Anderson and BT on the same line?

Gotta think a combination involving Anderson/Dvorak / B+ prospect / picks 26 and 33
Could they really take on all that salary? Gotta be at least one putrid contract coming our way.

I couldn't sit through the whole thing either haha, I'm one of those that will be happy with any of the top 3 and trust HUGO but the straight up hate mongering that mccagg is doing with Wright clearly shows how biased he truly is.
