For example, Pierre Maguire and TSN love to sensationalize EVERYTHING that Team Canada and certain players do. To the point where they aren't really reporting facts, but rather telling fictional stories.
We are ALL educated hockey fans here in Canada and we don't need people like Maguire telling us what is or isn't a great play or who is or who isn't a great player. Maguire telling me that Chris Pronger played great is an insult to my hockey intelligence.
Point being, every country does it....

He does the exact same thing with American players. It's not a matter of nationalism, it's a matter of Maguire being overly caffeniated.
