Mike Milbury: "Russians are Eurotrash" ["They Brought Their Eurotrash game no heart"]

[RoseTintedVisor]

Please tell me this results in his career ending.

I never want to see this man again.

Too many bad memories.

[Chainshot]

That isn't what he said, he said they "brought their eurotrash game". Context is decisive.

[fruktbomb]

Milbury is THE idiot.

[OverTheCap]

I was just going to post something about this.

I sincerely that comment hope this ends his career in the broadcast booth.

What a classless, unprofessional thing to say.

[MrAlfie]

Had to rewind it because I didn't believe Milbury is THAT stupid to say it on national TV nonetheless... boy oh boy..

[Caballo Blanco]

How dare he say something right for once ?

[2Claude2Giroux]

Jeremy Roenick looked like Mike Myers after Kanye West's comment about Bush there.

Milbury is such a moron. You can't say that **** anywhere, especially the Olympics.

[Classic Devil]

Says the man who traded Spezza and Chara for Alexei Yashin.

Might want to edit the title before people think that's what he actually said.

[Darth Bangkok]

JR agreed.

[Humphrey*]

i'm sure this thread won't go well but their hatred of anything Russia was totally obvious.

neither of them liked the Semin hit (apparently you don't check people with 3 minutes left). then they basically praised Boyle for the slewfoot.

then Milbury chastised the Russians or bringing their "Euro-Trash" game. really?

are these 2 idiots the best NBC can do? i'd prefer Jack Edwards at this point.

mods if this thread gets out of hand i apologize and feel free to lock.

So players playing in Europe are "eurotrash" then. Much better.

[Drudkh]

Well, at least Milbury realizes Russia is European, unlike some of our posters.

Just end this thread already, especially after this truthful post.

It can't amount to anything good.

[NeilYoung]

I still wonder everyday how this moron has a national tv job
he has no knowledge is not interesting at all
I guess I do get enjoyment from how stupid he is though
Glad all Olympics I gotten the pleasure of listening to a real pro Bob McKenzie

This made me LOL

[poeman]

Millbury called Russia Euro-Trash


I was going to create a thread on this.

**** you Millbury...he's a piece of crap. Im an american, but even calling them euro trash is ****ing stupid.

Millbury just feels like a dumbass for picking russia.

[bigtimehockeyfan]

NBC probably likes this stuff.

oh, puh-leez. you don't say Eurotrash in any context when it comes to international competition. you just don't do it.

[poeman]

Mike Millbury is a *****...he ruined the islanders and he talks so much **** like he's good at his job.

[TheGooooch]

JR looked shocked. He didn't agree and say Eurotrash he agreed to the principle of what was being said

[OverTheCap]

To even use the word "eurotrash" in that context is inappropriate. It's a derogatory term that shouldn't be said.

It's like saying "the Americans brought their white trash game tonight."

[Extra Texture]

This is gonna go the way of "crapitals", i.e. I doubt it will amount to much.

He was an awful GM but I dont mind him doing commentary. JR was getting a little annoying though. "I talked to Ovie a few days ago, and I asked him if he was afraid of facing Canada. He replied "No, not at all" but I could tell there was a LITTLE hesitation there." This after they were 4-1 down

[Tavaresmagicalplay*]

I think what Milbury was trying to say is that the russians didn't play well.
