Yeah, I'm glad they faded to black first... but I agree it felt odd when that cut to the hipstery/happy Telus tune "I miss my friends..."

Yea, awful timing for that commercial. It doesn't help that it was one of the most annoying commercials on TV.

I missed the beginning of the tribute caught the end and it looked good and was touching
They told the crowd to stand up and remove their hats for a moment of silence but it wasn't needed as everyone was already up paying their respects
Good on you Calgary and RIP Steve

I think they wanted to cut to a commercial before Beasley started introducing Canyon, so they went right at the end of the moment of silence, but yeah, they should have given some sort of buffer before cutting to commercial.

Maybe Sportsnet is due a post-game email jihad for disrespecting the memory of Mr. Montador.

Has there been any update on Smid recently? He seems to have completely disappeared.

Colborne is a really good stick handler - among the best on the forwards not named Gaudreau.
