Makes sense and I wondered about that a couple times here, this year. MacLean has been over the top this year, and becoming more of a fanboy than usual, more dramatic than usual, probably knowing full well he didn’t really have to answer to anyone past this season.
I don’t particular care for Amber either, he has similar traits to McLean in hyperbolizing and pumping up things and players that don’t warrant them and come across as contrived. And always has to get some rushed last witty or silly comments in before commercials or starts of periods, just like MacLean.
Tbqh, wouldn’t, as much of a running joke it’s been, it surprise me if he latched onto the Oilers in some regard? Katz and Lowe especially like latching onto trophies like that (see Nicholson) and they took John Shannon away from Sportsnet national and stuck him on the regional game panel for a year, the year Rogers Place opened. MacLean would have to move back out here though.
