Yeah, it was really noticeable. I really like Hrudy and think he has great insights and is a pleasure to listen to most of the time. But man, it was like invasion of the body snatchers.
Calling it a "special night" because he gets to watch McBaby, and compared it to the experience of watching Gretzky and Lemieux -- two gifted players, but also terrific leaders with sky-high GAF, not to mention multiple-time champions -- in their prime? Come ON, man.
Makes me think Sportsnet has some kind of corporate line to BJ the Oilers and to market the hell out of McDavid. Why don't they get that the rest of the country can't stand them -- and that McDavid is just a supremely talented, super-selfish bonehead?
