I cannot stand cheech, I’m sorry if it’s an unpopular opinion. Nice guy. But my god man, enough with the food stories and I don’t find him too insightful.
 

Him right behind the bruins announcer for biggest homer 

I don't pay a lot of attention to other teams' announcers, but he'd have to be pretty extreme to "out-homer" Cheech....

 

Funny thing is, the one guy who probably was a bigger homer is Tom Larscheid and Canuck fans seem to absolutely love him......and he wasn't even a hockey guy....:lol:

TBH, I like Cheech for that reason.....color guys are color guys and there's only so many ways to say "activate the defense", and "make the smart play".....it gets kind of boring after a while, no matter who it is.

 

Then you have stories like the one from early in Cheech's career....(I'm telling the story from memory and I read it a long time ago, so apologies if it's not dead accurate)

 

I think he was in Hartford at the time, but the story goes, he was backing up that night. Since the starter had been on fire for the past few games, Cheech was sure that he wasn't going in, so he had one of the assistant equipment guys grab him a hot dog from the vendor....

 

Of course, just as he's ready to dig in, the starter goes down with an injury. Knowing that all of a sudden, all eyes are on him, Cheech panics and hides the hot dog in his pants....Having no way to get rid of it, without alerting the coach, he heads out onto the ice with the hot dog firmly nestled in his goalie gear and finishes out the game that way....

 

Other than the equipment guy, no-one was the wiser, although I imagine they must have wondered about the mess his Long Johns were after stripping off the gear....:lol:

 

That's just the kind of thing you'll never hear from a "regular" color guy.....:)

Quick poll on his extension…

 

a) it’s already done, to be announced on Monday

b) history is repeating itself and Pat Morris is battling Lou Lam for $

c) Bo will hire a new agent

d) Bo has zero interest in signing with NYI, and heads to UFA

e) I don’t care, I’ve moved on

In typical lou fashion...

 

F) it's already done, to be announced a week before free agency.

Neither A or D would surprise me, Newport represents a lot of Islanders as well as Jordan Eberle who signed with the Isles before the expansion draft.

Either Detroit or Buffalo.
