NHLPDM: "I object to the snow shower you just gave my goalie!"
AS: "Overruled."
NHLPDM: "I strenuously object!"
AS: "Oh, you strenuously object?"
NHLPDM: "Yeah, I really didn't like it and I'm angry, and my therapist insists it's healthier if I express my emotion directly and straightforwardly and in the moment."
AS: "That actually makes sense, NHL Player Derek Morris."
NHLPDM: "I HATE when people call me that!! GRR!! ARRGH!! DEREK MORRIS SMASH!!"
I am absolutely positive that these were the exact words said between the two and no one can tell me otherwise.
Man...I didn't even notice it was Keenan! The NHL must hate us pretty badly to put the two worst hockey minds on the same panel.
I think it's genius. One guaranteed way to make a man look smart is to sit him right next to someone dumber. One guy opens his mouth and suddenly the other guy looks smarter. Then the other guy talks and the first guy looks smarter...just in time for his turn to speak again.
It's like a perpetual motion machine fueled by idiocy.
It's more important that they learn to respond quickly to adversity in the playoffs. Sometimes the other team is going to get some power plays, sometimes they're going to make some great shots, or the Blues will turn it over, or play with less intensity for a few shifts. I think Hitchcock's matter of factness is a big asset for this young team in the playoffs. Even if and when they screw up and even eventually fail by losing a series, I trust Hitchcock to pinpoint exactly what the issue is so that these guys can learn.
Separately, how can Milbury be that big an idiot? He explains that the context of Clowe's unbelievably character-less play may have cost LA home ice and a division title, and then in the next breath he says, "but no harm, no foul." No matter what your position is on the Clowe incident, those two ideas are totally inconsistent and can't be carried in the same brain.

If only we could bring Don Cherry and Eddie Olczyk into the mix...

Oh man...I'm crying now. You guys are on it tonight!
Edit: How many hall of famers did these two "legends" get rid of? The over/under has to be around 6-8.

Dude...you might have just stumbled upon mankind's ultimate source of renewable energy
There have been three BRUTAL linesman calls this game against the Blues. The hand pass just before the Oshie slashing penalty. And the last two offsides.
