[RayMartyniukTotems]

Ol' guy scores like he can

 

[kingsholygrail]

Poor Doughty. Went splat on that last attempt.

 

[kingsboy11]

Somehow we're still in this game

 

[tny760]

doughty probably had more time than he thought

bummer

 

[theMajor]

drewwwwwwwwwww LOL

 

[Telos]

I looked it up because why not and LA has the third most expensive group of forwards in the league behind the Stars and the Isles.

Hockey night in canada between periods is so professional and high quality

Is it though? It used to be at least. It's mostly gone way downhill though. Was this one decent? I missed half of it running to the store.

For sure it's better than intermission reports on USA broadcasts.

I miss the Coach's Corner segments with Don Cherry though.

You never really knew what he was gonna rant about, but you knew it'd be hilarious. Or insightful. One or the other. Or both.

Don was our Piano Man.

If you watched the kings between periods regularly hnic is state of the art.

I liked old don cherry bigoted as he was

Ron mcclean was a good straight man for grapes too

Fair. Spoiled i guess. But it's still nowhere near what it was. Bieksa doing as good a replacement for Grapes as we've seen yet i guess.

Regardless of what you think of Don, he actually had an OPINION. It could be outlandish, it could be silly, and sometimes it could be astute. He also had a personality.

Most broadcasts are vanilla hockey guys like Stoll prattling off lame ho-hum hockey cliches.

no other choice, i think there was less that 1 second left.

Thought they were going to fight.

Pretty much. Didn't always agree with Don. Often didn't agree with Don even...but he brought something completely different to the table. That made it interesting and worthwhile. HNIC has gotten away from that quite a bit, and caught a lot of flak for it too. Which is why it surprised me a bit to see such a positive review..

or offend a race or two.

You mean...those people?

 

[chris kontos]

Grapes was an unfortunate cancel culture victim

That Rotolo Chevrolet commercial with Orel Hershheiser is worse than the Dubois trade

They should get Dubois doing some car commercials. Make him put on his best Franglish accent to really sell it. Have him sell something real expensive and impractical too.
