Thanks to the nonstop ramblings of Craig Simpson, spending the Leafs/Senators game hitting the mute button like Nicole Kidman hits the love button in Baby Girl.

The Montreal fans booing Logan Thompson and chanting his name as he’s unable to get up and skate away from the net on his own is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen and heard. Just remember…Karma’s a cunt, Habs.

If only there was a play-by-play guy to let us know who has the puck…we wouldn’t need name bars covering up the puck, the goal crease, the players….Luckily it’s not so monumentally distracting that you end up watching the name bars instead of the play. ESPN NHL #NHLPlayoffs

Christ Jesus please bring back John Shorthouse and Tomlinson. Or the great John Garrett. Or even an AI generated version of Tom Larscheid because anything is better than….Craig Simpson. #NHLPlayoffs

Being a Washington Capitals fan (and I am) is basically the exact same as being a Vancouver Canucks fan (which I am). It's the same team, only different. Which is to say exactly the same: always thinking up new and fun ways to disappoint.

If the non-stop monotone ramblings of Craig Simpson are already ruining the #StanleyCup finals for you (and it's only game one) you might enjoy this Honestly dude, stop talking like you're getting paid by the word. Especially when the play is going on. youtu.be/fUvRyudos3Q?si…

Hey people of East Van. Anyone know why the entire neighbourhood sounded like something from David Lynch’s Eraserhead from 3:30 AM until 6 AM this morning? It seemed like it was coming from Port of Vancouver and it was insane… youtu.be/qv2pU0h2cWg?si…
