OT: Rick DiPietro

[ziggy7716]

I was just wondering, what happened to DP being on the intermissions during the games? Did they break his heart and let him go again or something?? To me he was perfect at that job

They've had a few guys run through over the last few years. My favorite was Pat Flatley. He has a casual, but insightful vibe. DiPietro was a little too much... stuff. I don't care for Asham either. Something awkward about him.

They should bring back the Heals and Flats show.

What's awkward is not seeing Barnabys face at the end of his fists
Asham deserves a chance. Seems a bit scripted . He will loosen up
As for DP , he'll be back at some point

By awkward you mean he can hardly speak a sentence?

Or is it he bounces up and down on his chair waiting to answer a question. Guy needs to smoke a blunt and relax.

I was told he didn’t want to re-sign for another season. He gets home too late after games and has to be out the door too early the next morning for his radio gig.

This is exactly how I feel. Flatley was very, very good at being an inside-the-glass commentator. DiPietro was too much, he was trying to be an Isles-exclusive Don Cherry, and I already don't even like Don Cherry. Asham seems forced upon us.

Asham (with Martinek) coach my son's hockey. He is a quiet and awkward dude

Nah, f*** Glen Healy.

 

[Bones45]

Its obviously the hatred of Brooklyn. And yes -- Asham is a mess -- very green --- way too nervous. Flatley was as boring as watching paint dry.

Get Bones in there --- spice the place up!

DP was great

You and Shannon on TV will be like watching this in between every period.

LOL..it would be fantastic.

 

[WagnerGrad96]

Yeah . . .Asham is quite awkward . . . I thought we would see Stan during the Avalanche game, seeing that it was on a weekend at home . :-(

that's a guy that has too much money to turn down an easy gig

I was wondering what happened to DP. IMHO he was great for TV. Though opinionated (comes with the territory), he brought insight and flair. Shame. Would prefer him representing NYI than many other ex-Isles.

He's gonna replace Butchie one day doing color commentary, I'm sure of it.

Really? I thought he was quite funny and wry. I guess that type isn't for everybody.
