Sportsnet: Bryz to cover deadline on sportnets

[Seedling]

Should be funny. Definitely an individual who marches to his own beat. It's refreshing.

 

[BatVader]

Can't stand Sportsnet.
TSN Tradecentre is the best coverage there is.
Plus they dance and shoot t-shirt guns at each other when the trades slow down.

On Vanek: "Good for him. Lots of sun. Ocean. Play the beach ball with Jaromir Jagr."

On Hanzal: "I check the roster. Minnesota have 11 centres and they trade for the Hanzal. We need depth!"

On Doan: "He going to continue riding his horses and enjoying his farm. Catch the scorpion and train the rattlesnake."

I tuned in to SN for about 2 minutes, but heard this one and lol'd:

“My name is Ilya Bryzgalov. I’m your new leader. Let’s go.” — on how he introduced himself to his new teammates

 

[Volica]

He's a ridiculously charismatic guy. I got a few chuckles out of him.
I don't know why I find a Russian dude so funny, my parents are both Eastern European, so it's definitely not the accent

 

[Inkling]

Did anyone follow his cat on Instagram?

 

[Dog]

Did anyone actually watch sportsnet? Lol

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

I watched the whole thing and got a good chuckle everytime Bryz was on The other guys were cracking up on the show as well.

I wish Bryz would be a regular on SN.

I love Bryz. He was great the first segment. Then they went to BlueJays baseball and I switched the channel for the day.

 

[Unsustainable]

Bryz needs a full time gig with the NHL doing interviews and opinion pieces. He's a fun personality

 

[Atas2000]

I guess he gets his own sticky thread on the main board the day he gets a regular job on TV.

 

[Bleedred]

Agreed.

Definitely, he's the best.

He's also not gonna scare little kids who are up before their bedtime, like creepy looking Adam Oates, who looks like a vampire.

Since Bryz is seen as a goofball character and comic relief, I wouldn't be surprised if he never gets a full time role.

Oates definitely has a vampire look... he and his evil minion Marty Biron.

I'm all for more Bryz. Great to see that personality back on TV.

 

[McMozesmadness]

I thought Bryz was the best part of deadline day. "I am your leader now!"

 

[Unsustainable]

Agreed.

Definitely, he's the best.

Why you heff to be mad, that is still funniest interview ever. Yeah, he def deserves a full time gig.

Yeah if anyone finds the handle (since he couldn't seem to remember), let me know. Too funny.

 

[Poignant Discussion*]

Sportsnet is really pulling out all the stops. I guess they know TSN still absolutely owns them as far as coverage/analysis goes. I think it'll take a few more stunts to actually bring in viewers though. TSN is pretty unbeatable. I doubt Bryz really moves the needle.

The only person I like on TSN is Ferraro, the rest are blowhard buffoons. I guess if you enjpy blowhards like Mac and Dregger, it could be enjoyable. For others above 14 years old they are grating

Not sure why Sportsnet has such a bad rap here. It was far better quality than TSN without all the gimmicks

Who were those idiots doing that segment with Duthie calling him 'Duthers' ? That was so cringe worthy I had to mute it

Different strokes. You could easily say the same about Kypper & MacLean. For the most part they're all good at their jobs IMO. Duthie & Dreger aren't really my cup of tea, but TSN does a great job as far as depth and quality of analysis goes. They have much better presentation on screen, and they have the viewers, plain and simple.

PS - congrats on being 15, dog
