JayDangles Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) I will reserve my judgement on Doug and Kyper leaving... until I hear who their replacements are. For all their good and bad rants and takes..... it might be about to get a lot worse depending on who they put in. (Even Strombo had me wanting Maclean back... which i never thought possible!!)

They gave Bob McCown the heave-ho a few weeks ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 This is too bad. he was one of the few guys on the panels that I actually liked. He was also one of the few (it seemed) Canucks supporters, talking about how bright the future is in VAN with Horvat, Boeser and Pettersson, etc. I wonder if they're planning on bringing in more women to join the panel (Wickenheiser etc). 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they don't ditch John Shannon next. He's a big western supporter as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 This one sucks a bit more than the Kyper one. I asked for Hrudey to leave, not Doug. Maybe they are making room for Lu as well as Bieksa. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I originally disliked Maclean, but he eventually grew on me. Seems like Sportsnet is either making big changes or Maclean and Kypreos both had some beef with SN. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wickenheiser is in Medical School iirc so that would be unlikely. 29 minutes ago, N7Nucks said: Maybe they are making room for Lu as well as Bieksa. KB3 would be awesome but tbh I don't think I'd enjoy Lu on the panel - especially after this cap recapture penalty so he can join Florida's management team - only to be on tv? Yeah that wouldn't sit well with me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wants to move on from hockey completely. Wanna be upset, be upset at the league. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
