The official I love or hate Barry Melrose..

Barry Melrose said that UNH is the best skating team in college hockey, post hoc ergo propter hoc he must be incredibly intelligent and knowledgeable.

Yet, he didn't mention that RIT outskated UNH the whole game. Whatever he knows about ability and technique, he can't see what was right before his eyes.

Why don't they just take a TV crew from one of the schools in the regional or a crew from a hockey school close to the regional to do the broadcast? . . .

Probably because they have to pay Barry anyway, and they need to get something out of him.

Kind of like an expensive free agent who sucks now. You might play him even if there's a rookie who is better.

Actually, you gotta give Mullet some credit - he's a hustler - a really good one. I saw him standing around after the UNH/RIT game talking to RIT fans, working for info. He definitely doesn't know enough about college hockey but he works the crowds to get enough 'info' for the next broadcast. Of course it was a six year old that he was talking to but hey, info is info!

I went to 4 of the 15 games of this year's tourney and was spared the pain of having to listen to Melrose accept for tonight. Gary Thorne is a class act, Melrose is a self inflated fat bastard who should shave that goofy looking hair on his chin.

Can you picture the Mullet as a regular on The Great White North! Hoser or Poser?! ;)
