He was in a room full of Season Ticket Holders and disrespected every one of them for 30 minutes. The references to cookies was verbatim. It was appalling for him to treat NHL customers who make that kind of commitment to a team that way.

Eye of the beholder, man. What was the question and what was his point about background knowledge? You can’t even recall what the topic was, though.

I sincerely doubt your version of “disrespected every one of them for 30 minutes”. Versus “treated dumb questions like dumb questions”.

Dog days of January games in Saskatoon and Red Deer.

The league would have folded if they didn’t “Americanize” the league.
