Pierre McGuire Has Olympic Gold Medalist Kendall Coyne Schofield On The Broadcast, Immediately Treats Her Like She's Never Watched Hockey Before
Jeeeeeezus Christ, Pierre. That was a brutal watch right there. I mean I know that Pierre’s hockey expertise comes from running the Hartford Whalers out of existence and just naming every single youth team that NHL players ever played with growing up, so he’s clearly the authority on the game here and everything. But maybe, just maybe, the Olympic gold medalist knows a thing or two about the game as well.
“Tampa’s going to be on your left, Pittsburgh’s going to be on your right … we’re paying you to be an analyst, not be a fan tonight.”
Buddy. Kendall Coyne would fucking work you up and down the rink. And she was just at the NHL All Star Skills Competition where she was one of the fastest skaters in the entire world.
I don’t think she needs your creepy ass mansplaining the game to her. She was just out there skating with those guys last weekend. You think she needs you to tell her the Bolts are on one side of her and the Penguins are on the other like she’s some sort of idiot who is at a hockey game for the first time in her life? Yikes. Yikes. Yikes.
If I’m looking for hockey analysis, I’m probably going with the Olympic gold medalist over the dude who just tells me what Sidney Crosby had for lunch on October 3, 2007. If anybody in that conversation is a fan, it’s Pierre.
