It amazes me Lucic is still in the NHL. I have said this before and with the start to this season I am even more baffled by this.

It is clear the game has passed him by. He is clearly frustrated his days of being an impactful player are long behind him.

He can not keep up with the game and is far too slow to be an effective player.

He knows this. So all he can do is attempt to act as an enforcer. However due to his lack of speed and ability he has no choice but to act in a manner that is outside of the rules to make a difference.

Imo he is a loose cannon who needs to be removed because due to these factors it is just a matter of time before he severely injures someone with a cheap shot.

It is not a question of whether or not this will happen - It is a question of when it does happen, how severe will it be?

He's in a Flames jersey, he will be fine.
If he was in a Canuck jersey, he would've been long gone and suspended over 9000 games for swatting a fly.
It is what ii is in this league m8, if he can play out his contract good for him.

Oilers fans said the exact same thing about his suspension last year? for us , with no irony whatsoever.

I love what a homer Cassie Campbell is when she calls the game. "Lars Eller scores... first time I've said his name tonight". "Foligno steps up to Lucic... not that he stands a chance in that matchup..."

She truly is unlistenable.

Wasn't being sarcastic though, its a enjoyable change from Hrudey, who is a homer too, but spends the entire game gushing over whatever superstar is visiting town. Or slobbering Johnathan Quick's knob in a non-kings matchup.

it is interesting that every fan base in Canada hates their broadcasters

they're trying to be neutral but USA just homers their team

One reason I prefer streaming.

You can chose the away announce team if you like. It is nice to listen to different announce teams.

I avoid her like the plague.

She managed to be worse than Marc Crawford... Which I did not think was possible.

Hell I would even listen to Glenn Healy rant and rave about the 94 Rangers, which he was a bench warmer on.

John Garrett fails at that miserably if you have ever listened to him....

If a call does not go the Canucks way he will whine about it till no end.

His homerism is so blatant I actually find it funny at times.

John and John are the best casters hands down, no bias.
