The ironic part is that the Flyers goal earlier in that very same game scored by Farabee had a nicer passing sequence
Maguire is the absolutely f***ing worst in the business.
Letting this penis looking clown call Penguins games when he has been desperate to work for that organization for years is an absolute joke. NBC is trash.

true........ he also says, great play here by the Pittsburgh Penguins, or Boston Bruins etc ...... always saying the entire name of the teams!
Ehh, you don't' have to say the whole thing dude, we f***ing know what city they are from or what the team is called!
Settle with one of the two !!

With teams playing a limited number of opponents this season, it is becoming painfully obvious how much stuff he recycles. Did you know that John Forslund likes to send Pierre the odds of teams making the Stanley Cup every morning? I do now cause Regis likes to tell everyone, every game they work together.

"Kristopher Letang". I dont know why it bothers me that he has to say the whole name, every time.
Also, the way his voice pitch raises and lowers sometimes is strange, like some part of his sentences wind up getting mumbled. Like last night he was talking about something positive the Flyers did and I thought he was talking about some random guy watching at home named "Al Avino" liking what he saw, before I realized he was talking about Vigneault

He's on Ottawa radio every weekday morning. His radio persona vs his TV persona is night and day. Could also be because he does his radio hits in the morning and isn't wound up yet, but his tone is so different.
I dont mind listening to Pierre. His refusal to listen to any sort of analytics is annoying, but I dont get hung up on that. Hes just a bit of a dinosaur that way.

Love or hate him, you don’t know hockey if you think PM doesn’t know hockey.
I respect his knowledge and passion for the game. Second to none really.
Do I enjoy watching / listening to him? Sure, doled out sparingly, but I wouldn’t want to listen to him every game.

I find it impossible to watch and enjoy a game that he's calling. The overexcitement and hyperbole. The shouting over the PBP rather than letting his coworker just do his job. The bizarre/awkward statements he makes several times/game. Just the general tone of his voice. I have an absolutely visceral reaction against it.
Pierre has so much random information that is completely unrelated to the game. A guy could score a goal, "He used to play for X in junior, he scored a goal like that in Jr on a Wednesday night, that he learned from his grandpa, who happened to be a forklift driver in a Canadian tire warehouse handling hockey sticks" like bro shutup and talk about the game in front of you.

He is a little bit annoying with his random factoids but overall I like listening to him on the local radio station.

I love to hate him, but in the end, dude is better than 99% of guys out there. He knows his shit, he does say interesting stuff, and watching players and coaches hate him is worth the price of attendance alone.

I can't really get angry at your post because...... well...... Sound and Vision!
Joking aside, I love Pierre. He is enthusiastic, he knows the game, he seems like a nice guy and he makes me laugh (sometimes, I'm sure, not on purpose).
I don't mind him as a person. Seems passionate, nice, courteous etc. But there was a game a few weeks ago between the Bruins and Rangers... he must have said Adam Fox's name over 20 times. Like, if Fox entered the tv shot he would literally just yell Adam FOX! It was absolutely bonkers imo. It was like he had a bet with a co-worker on how many times he could say his favourite players name, sort of Super Troopers 'Meow' level stuff.

I love Pierre. His knowledge and passion for the game is undeniable. Yea he's awkward as hell but imo that makes him more endearing.
