Poster can't be talking about Foppa one of the all time greats right?
- opeth_pa


I'm sure he was and if he made the post a few seasons ago, I'd ALMOST buy it. Hr was a tough guy to knock off the puck. Now, not so much although there's a shades of it here and there.

It does put them in an embarrassing spot, but I wouldn't call it a tough spot. Were they to ask me, I'd recommend that they just ignore it. The comments weren't scandalous, or even scathing. They were simply opinions. Ignore it and move on.

Oh, and cut the mics during commercial breaks.

Would I do it to a friend? No. But the Tweeter isn't a friend of the guys. But I'm fine with it being circulated. The guys are humans and they know the game. It's nice to hear blunt opinions.

Two disappointed guys blowing off steam. No big deal. It’s a little embarrassing for JJ and Jonesy and Comcast. It’ll be forgotten soon enough. Honestly Comcast should be more embarrassed by the product they’re putting on the ice.

Folks in the Scandinavian region did. Go read the tweet. It's been linked here several times.

It's not just other regions, what was recorded was a truck feed stream. They can be found online all the time. Very enjoyable to watch and always hilarious. I remember one time last year they had the camera feed from the concourse active during intermission, some dude just walked in front of camera and picked his ass for 3 mins all while being clueless. I have heard some hilarious conversations and even some partial nudity.

The post I saw it looked like it was post-game. Guys wrapped up their broadcast and just venting about what they had to sit through. From the looks of the seating bowl and benches it appears post-game. I can't see the scoreboard too well to confirm.

Yup. They said the same thing the fans are saying. Should we have to apologize to these players too?

They suck and they're gonna hear it. That's how it goes.

- hereticpride


You are not always sorry when you apologize, and you are not necessarily wrong. A apology in this case is about being a professional and never making enemies when you don’t have to.

Fans are exempt, of course, not being professional or having personal relationships to account for.

His blocks are legendary. I think he must be a funny guy in his own way. His interviews are not ordinary.

Okay, I'm not much of a Beatles fan. I think they're okay and all but let's not get crazy. You can try to fight me but I won't engage.

Anyway, how is it that I've not heard this Frampton cover until today?

Holy crap!

Voracek spends more time on social media than playing defense.

It was a bit of comic relief and something besides losing to talk about; if they say anything, it would be stupid really.

It is a private issue now which is of course why we are gossiping about it.

Everyone be sure to vote for Voracek for the all star game so Fletcher can say All-Star Jake Voracek when making trades in the offseason.

why are people triggered by the Jackson/Jones commentary?
if you (as a player) don't like it then (frank)ing change how you play

Unfortunately the NHL selected Jake as the “last man” candidate. If each city actually had a say we 100% would vote AMac as a troll. John Scott ruined it for us. Thank him !
