You were terrible at your job Mr. Francis.

Who wants to bet he's the new Roger Millions?

 

[Mr Snrub]

Grow up, it's no longer his job.

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

Grow up, it's no longer his job.

I was waiting for this

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Who wants to bet he's the new Roger Millions?

That was my thought as well. I hope not.

 

[InfinityIggy]

And nothing of value was lost.

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

Who wants to bet he's the new Roger Millions?

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Who wants to bet he's the new Roger Millions?

Yeah, that's probably it.

In general, we'll probably be seeing him on Sportsnet more often in any case.

 

[Mobiandi]

Beaten to it. You got Leslie and Singh, and it'll be Francis

 

[Tkachuky]

Good riddance but please no to replacing Millions. f***

 

[MonyontheMoney]

Beaten to it. You got Leslie and Singh, and it'll be Francis

Either would be much better option, ainec.

 

[super6646]

Hahahahaha!

Seriously, the way this guy acts can run players out of town. I hope his career in the hockey biz is over...

 

[CraigsList]

I wouldn't shut the door just yet. Cross your fingers that he doesn't take Millions' spot.

 

[Rubi]

Good luck in your new job Mr. Francis. You were never shy about expressing your opinions and making predictions. You've been very entertaining and really, in the hockey world, that's what its really all about.. Its an entertainment business. You did it well.

 

[Lunatik]

f***. This means this asshole will be on TV even more

 

[Anglesmith]

Yeah, I like it up until the "exciting new gig" part.

 

[The Gnome]

WORST. NEWS. EVER! Clearly more air time, at least I barely watch hockey until the NFL season is done...but damn, more Eric Francis on my TV just sounds downright horrible.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Makes sense to me that Francis is the type of person to let his people know he'll be "off the grid".

Hope it's Harvey the Hound, and the most he gets to do is bang a drum and take a picture. Guessing it'll be more of him yelling his opinions at people. If he's the guy interviewing players I see more than a couple that end up him interviewing himself.
