I'm not sure what his name is and I don't have the time/give-a-damn to look up his name, but we all know Boston's TV announcer to be one of the worst EVER. The often over-dramatic, always ignorant homer is laughable to hear in the background of Bruins highlights. But it gets worse....

Also, he looks like a much bigger weasel than his voice suggests.

So if I understood correctly... Zdeno Chara was around for the American Revolution?

At least I don't feel alone when I was lost in translation. The only thing I understood was his last two sentences.

1) I just woke up.
2) I haven't had anything to wake up my brain.
3) I have been living through the "migraine hangover" from yesterday's headache.
Now that I have my excuses made, I just want to say that if he was talking about the Flight of the Octopus, I'd be totally on board with what he was saying. Unfortunately, I didn't quite catch what his topic was.
But what the heck, let's just go with it. Everyone run over to Boston, throw an octopus in the sea, and we'll get the King of Montreal to surrender.

He must be related to John Keating.
He makes John Keating look like John D. Rockefeller.

i actually like jack edwards. he was good back in the day on espn. and while he can be a homer, i hear him make fair assessments about bad calls and things that balance him out a bit. he is paid by nesn to be the bruins announcer. not a neutral announcer. with that said, that video makes no freaking sense at all!!!!

I love Maltby, but to say he wasn't a ****** is a dis-service to his career of douchebaggery.

I just watched it and followed up to a tee (no, not the Boston Tea Party that he mentioned)...
I really like the comment.... Very colorful and well spoken...

The evolution he makes transitioning from a diatribe about royalty taking credit for things they don't do, into diving and then hitting into boards is phenomenal. The guy's logic is sound, clearly.

Sooo....that really did not make much sense at all...I wonder what he was smoking right before they filmed that.
But it SEEMS (???) that he is comparing the Montreal Canadiens to the British Empire and King George III...while the Boston Bruins are the American Revolutionaries. There are so many problems with that...where can I even start??

I think he feels like the canadiens think they are royalty because of the success of the franchise so long ago. And now they are living off the name instead of earning it. But I'm pretty sure they made it farther last year than the bruins has in a while.

WOW! He actually looks like that. 
Hilarious. I thought he looked more like a bear than a squirrel based on that voice.
