That display by Luongo against the Sharks was disgusting.
Anyway, as you guys could probably imagine, I'm not a fan of ANY commentator. I hate all of them. In every sport, broadcasters have, over the years, morphed into shameless promoters.
Cassie Campbell is horrible. I know that's not politically correct but it's true. Also, she just said that Phaneuf, unlike a guy like Kasparaitis, NEVER puts himself out of position when he goes for a hit. NEVER. Hmmm, putting down a Russin and promoting a Canadian eh? Gee, I could have sworn that was one of Phaneuf's only weaknesses in his rookie season but we can't expect Cassie to know that I guess. Don Cherry must be coaching her. It's funny with Don how stats are relevant ONLY when it pertains to CANADIAN hockey players.
