Pikeslayer Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 It's all about the next generation/social media of hockey fans. Curious to know how many twitter followers Strombo vs McLean vs Cherry or anybody else on HNIC?
Pigeontroller Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 More drivel from the NHL. This has nothing to do with the NHL...
HTHM Posted March 11, 2014 Author Report Posted March 11, 2014 Wow!!! One person posts something without all the facts and everyone jumps on the bandwagon like they been of that opinion forever. He's not replacing McLean. You're right, I did not have all the facts, I simply posted what information I had. However we have gotten a good discussion going now. Isn't that what is nice about this board?
jedimaster Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 Don Cherry knows the game, the extra weird parts of his personality are just that. Weird. I rarely disagree with the actual hockey opinions he has. As for Strombo being on HNIC. I don't like it at all. It doesn't fit imo. I could think of a dozen people off hand I would rather here and see on HNIC other than him. Actually if I started making a list I doubt he would even be on the list. No offense to him personally as I have met him a few times and some of my good friends are close to him. On HNIC though? No thanks.

Steve Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 Boss, ron mclean has been in hockey before he was on coaches corner. where did you get that idea?
jimmer Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 Wasn't this a CBC decision? They're good at making the right decision! LOL
kickingfrog Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 Rogers is calling the shots now. CBC will be involved for 4 more years but the Roger's contract is with the NHL for 10 years and they will decide who will be involved.
HTHM Posted March 13, 2014 Author Report Posted March 13, 2014 Here is 22 minutes take on the change: http://www.cbc.ca/22minutes/videos/clips-season-21/strombos-hockey-night-in-canada
moxie Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 What the hell??? I don't like this at all. Who is his partner gonna be? Justin Trudaeu? :rofl2: ...... George ain't the guy. "Nice guy" just not "The guy". Justin on hockey? If his foray into politics have shown us anything thus far, he wouldn't be able to get many words out of his pie hole cause his foot would be firmly lodged in it most of the time. I'd almost wanna pay just to see it.
crappieperchhunter Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 I actually think Strombo will do fine. Just something the hockey folks will have to warm up to.
kickingfrog Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 I find it interesting how many hockey fans ate worried about someone who has zero to do with what they watch during the actual game. When do they get a beer and walk the dog?
