I'm not about to read through yet another Jack Edwards Complain thread...but I need to say my peace.
It's outbursts like this latest one that really irk me (a Bruins fan). It's not even necessarily because the player was hurt...it's just embarrassingly unprofessional to go off on agitated rants like that and for such an extended period...and as frequently as he has them.
He makes himself look like a fool when he does this, and rarely does he have a rock-solid unbiased point when he's flipping out either.
That being said, his game-calling from a technical standpoint, is pretty damn good. His voice gets annoying only when he starts whining, IMO. I enjoy his call, but can't stand the majority of his rants.
I think it's also important to separate Andy Brickley from him. He rarely plays into his rants, other than offering up a slightly Bruins-slanted take on bad reffing (find me a local color guy who doesn't...you can't). I think Brick is easily a top 3 Color guy in the league.
In regards to "needs to be stopped", I'd slightly agree. I do wish NESN would talk to him about going overboard, but he creates pub for them, so why would they? He doesn't often whine about injured players (unless they're Habs faking injuries) so that's not a citeable issue. He's just annoying. To that I say: "Get over it".
