Melrose knows hockey, but he's a douche. Barnaby was on ESPN for a while, but then he beat up his wife so they fired him.

In other minor news, Crosby returns with 2 goals and 2 assists.

Sportscenter was trumpeting it as his return singlehandedly saving the NHL.

Funny to see Stuart Scott acting like he is a hockey expert.

Is there anyone at ESPN that really knows what they are talking about when it comes to hockey? Does ESPN even broadcast hockey games? Does 2 goals and 2 assists your first day back put a huge bullseye on your sweater for the rest of the season?
I'd say no unlike soccer where they have a vested interest in it and try and force it down our throats.

Altho the loss of the NBA has put a crimp in their ass kissing of the players.

That shirt is both broad and blue. I still don't know what broadshirt is though. Clearly, however, I do know what a Blueshirt is.

I know what a blue line is also. Sabres tonight for the "B's", not broadshirts, whoever the f*ck they are.

Bs/Sabre could be interesting with the Sabres possibly going after Lucic at the drop of the puck.

Cody is on his way to the arena now. He's taking clothing hints from you. Nice touch.

At ESPN it depends on who you are when beating your wife.

Howard Bryant was arrested for assaulting his wife, in public, in front of several witnesses.

He was not fired, hell he was never even suspended.

I think he's back. I could have sworn I saw him on SC with Levy. I believe he did a segment the day after the Crosby return.

Wishing for a good brawl tonight, but I doubt it. I think both teams got warnings this week. Perhaps a quick drop of the gloves between Lucic and whomever, but I doubt there will be much of anything in fear of fines/suspensions. Who do the Sabres have that can drop the gloves, better yet, who do they have that could create a line brawl without getting destroyed? From what I read, the Sabres didn't call up any of their goons from the minors. I just hope the B's can continue their win streak and come out of the game healthy.

Wasn't a great fight bu Lucic was the clear winner.

He did drop the other guy to the ice. Not sure if the other guy ever hit him but Lucic got in 4 or 5.
