Default Celebrity Roast of Ron Maclean

First, apologies if people hate that this is in this sub-forum. I wasn't sure where to put this and it's hockey related.

This is an event for the Western Canada Professional Hockey Scouts Foundation and it should be a really fun evening. The roasters include Elliotte Friedman, Dennis Beyak, Peter Maher, John Shannon, Tim Hunter and Kevin Lowe.

This takes place Saturday, September 30 at the Okotoks Centennial Arenas and here is a link if anyone has interest: https://hockeyscoutsfoundation.com/e...f-ron-maclean/

I would also say they have a pretty impressive lineup of silent auction items (because the scouts have some great connections!) including a number of signed jerseys. You can check that out here: https://cbo.io/bidapp/index.php#

Was hoping this meant he was retiring.

They could bring in Bettman, except Maclean wouldn't know he was being absolutely dummied.

Let's hope someone brings up this bit of Hockey IQ from 2015

“Fantastic. I think for sure playoffs. I tell you who’s going to be lights-out this year is Jordan Eberle and Taylor Hall… You watch Eberle take off. He’s already been great in international hockey, but I think this is going to be his year, Taylor Hall’s year.

“And Connor McDavid and Darnell Nurse will fit in. Gimme a glass of wine or a beer, and I think in two years they win the Cup. That may be a little eager, but I don’t think more than four.”

"Ron Maclean is such an Oilers fanboy..."

"How much of an Oilers fanboy is he?"

"He's such an Oilers fanboy, he wore an Oilers shirt to a Flames-Oilers alumni golf tournament."

"That's not a joke."

"I never said it was a joke... That's an actual thing that happened."

I understand what happened between Ron, and Don, was bad. But I still really respect both of them, in different ways. But yea, it's time to retire..
