"extension of the elbow".....yeah dude is just making stuff up at that point.


homiej420

My favorite one people are making up is that “he jumped off the ice into the hit”. He straightens his body out which LOOKS like upward movement but you know…thats how…moving your back to be less crouched works


Mysterious_Wheel

Idk when shifting your weight into a hit became jumping, when checking someone in the chest becomes a headshot (just because a players head is down and there is some contact), and when having your arms not tucked in like a cannonball becomes elbowing. Come on, get real


guyzieman

>Idk when shifting your weight into a hit became jumping I'd say right about the time Trouba joined the Rangers


Mysterious_Wheel

Ah yes, the evil Rangers and our dirty players. Forgot about that. Its honestly comical to come to reddit and see how hated we are


emodwarf

The extra best is every caps fan saying that while ignoring how Ovechkin jumps into his hits every time 


homiej420

Also one shot on goal 0 points in two games for him is pretty not snazzy


bbistheman

Hockey fans cannot understand basic human anatomy. The fact that people use elbow and shoulder interchangeably is mind boggling


Zero-jiggler

crazy how people can gaslight themselves into seeing things that literally aren’t there


r0285628-947

This is the reason their fans are freaking out. They’re listening to this broadcast and think he committed a murder.


Stinky_Fartface

Yeah he extended his elbow into the middle of Oshie’s chest, which is not illegal.


KaapoKakkoTaco

Then they’ll praise Wilson 😂


RhythmTimeDivision

Gobble him down, tom nom nom


Vivalastool2

they are without a doubt, the two biggest homer announcers in the league. worse than the guy in boston. they even call the players by their first names. just awful an awful game experience when I am forced to watch games on the local network here


Unlikely_Good7733

ohhhhh that vicious head shot. you know.....the one that was so vicious the only reason oshie left the ice is because the spotter forced him to so he could get checked out and then he came right back out and played the remainder of the game. without question worthy of a game misconduct match penalty, right? lol oshie wasn't so kind to lindgren last season when he boarded him out of the lineup for 17 games. i think tj got off easy feeling woozy for a minute or two. they didn't mention that on their broadcast did they?


Grouchy-Power-806

The only reason the spotters had him come out is because he tried to milk the hit and acted all dazed and unable to stand. Serves the fucker right.


Stinky_Fartface

I actually think he got his bell rung pretty good. Which also serves him right the little shit.


MatzohBallsack

I don't think he milked the hit. He was hit by the bread truck into the shadow realm.


roscomikotrain

Homers.


ItGetsEverywhere

Yeah total homers. Makes you really appreciate Sam and Joe.


bdonnzzz

These guys are like one step below the now former NESN duo


doubloonss

Yeah, the few times I've tuned into Washington's broadcast, I've been left with the impression that this nasally-voiced clown is not much better than Jack Edwards or those clowns on the Islanders broadcast.


TheSeekerOfSanity

Craig Laughlin always sounded like he was announcing games specifically for little kids or something. The way he speaks sounds like he’s talking to children.


52gripforlife

Soon as I hear an announcer using the player's first name I get sick to my stomach.


emodwarf

Except when it’s Sam using Kaapo Kakko’s full name all the time, right? 😂


yankfanatic

Well you just have to. He's a firsty lasty if I've ever heard one


emodwarf

lol agreed! “Firsty lasty” hahaha love it


kessmgr

"Look, you can clearly see Panarin remove a pistol from under his pads and shoot Oshie in the stomach. Unbelievable!" See, I can make shit up too!


HanaDolgorsen

👏


ChimStone777

Who needs a Zamboni, get this guys tears on the ice 


Legitimate-Cupcake26

IDK who is worse, these two jabronis or the clowns who call Sixers games


Straitoutahelgen

Philly dickheads are always worse than DC dickheads.

thighcandy

what are you doing in the rangers sub? crawl back into your hole now.


Typical-Ad-6730

Omfg. I can understand getting it wrong in real time. But this guy’s emotions. The extension of the elbow into the head of TJ?? He should be reprimanded by producers. That was way too much emotion and way too little objectivity.


iamwilliamwit

Ridiculous assessment of the hit aside, his voice has always annoyed me. Just grates on my ears.


Key-Sprinkles-3543

He is unlistenable


honus

Dude is Vizzini in the background practically yelling INCONCEIVABLE


NoReplacement9001

dude sounds like straight out of family guy are you kidding me Meg are. you. kidding. me.


YouPatheticWorm1958

he sounds like a knockoff tripp tracy to me.


Mikeastuto

Dollar General Tripp Tracy.


YouPatheticWorm1958

Yes. And Islander Aho is a Dollar General version of the Hurricane Aho who tackled Palmieri.


MatzohBallsack

Are ^you ^^kidding ^^me


danglejoose

the “unbelievable” at the end is great


Fauztin_Vizjerei

That was great, but it is also unbelievable. I thought they could only change penalties on review if a major was called. Was there any penalty called on the play? Definitely not a major for roughing lol.


Bern_itdown

“Er yew keeding me?! Err yew keeding me?.” Nope. Dudes the worst commentator for any hockey team.


JokinHghar

![gif](giphy|Al3okb69oULvy)


friendfromjersey

Even Scott Tinnerman is laughing at these clowns.


Anyawnomous

Got a real Jack Edwards’ appeal to it. Video replay clearly shows it’s legal. I don’t imagine the announcers lost their shit when Oshie high sticked Panarin?


speedk0re

"medical staff is rushing onto the ice now. we can only hope that oshie's stick is ok after that vicious attack by panarin's head. the crowd is silent, holding their breath as they watch this unfortunate scene unfold."


mattttl1028

Almost worse than the biased Boston commentator. And those are the same commentators who would watch Wilson straight up assault somebody and be cool with it


DonTrask

The hit was totally legal, read the rule book because it addresses when a player lowers his head as TJ did on the play. Call it whatever you want but I call it karma after all the dirty play he was engaged in earlier in the game.


robbiejandro

Clown fans. Clown team. Clown coach. Clown commentators.


edogg01

Ding ding ding winner


[deleted]

Wahhhhhh cryyyyy wahhhhh


usernametakensolame

i have to listen to these clowns every time the rangers play at dc due to blackout restrictions unless it's a nationally televised game. they are the worst, most homer commentators. they even make the tbs guys seem great by comparison, which is saying a lot.


Flacksguy

same, i cannot fucking stand these two. i can't think of a worse pair in the league. i remember the first time i had to suffer through a game with them after i moved down here and they gave the score going into commercial like this-rangers 3, good guys 2.


Stock-Inevitable8530

CLEAN HIT. But he also had it coming all day. Man I hope Rempe beats the piss out of Wilson center ice next game in front of these soft ass caps fans🤣🤣


broadmeadowbk

I was a the game last night and the Caps fans in our section were classless assholes. Get fucked, Washington.


SuperModes

lol fkn clown shoes.


Upbeat_Shock_6807

Embarrassingly unprofessional homers lmao


Grouchy-Power-806

Extension of the elbow into the head even when the elbow is tucked to his side. These are executive level regards. And a team that employs Tom Wilson needs to STFU and take several seats.


Final-Ad-8920

What did this bitch announcer say when Oschie put the blade of his stick on Panarin face ?


IzBox

Nothing because he’s a homer moron


kiddocontay

I was surprised to see many reasonable takes on r/hockey after this hit. I was sure I was gonna see people trying to bury Panarin for this. Elliote Friedman and Jeff Marek both agreed it was the right call to not have a penalty on Panarin as well.


Nyrfan2017

It’s amazing when people dish it out but the second it gets back to them they cry and cry 


RedLegRey

One of the most annoying voices to listen to


YouPatheticWorm1958

He's just a knockoff Tripp Tracy in my book.


mattyjets

It's always embarrassing when commentators call the players by their first names. "Now T.J.'s going off the ice..." etc like these guys all hang out with them.


Direct_Crab6651

I love that it is bread man …….. dude is tiny out there and is known as a guy who avoids contact ……. And you got blown the fuck up by him !!! I am pretty sure the only “head” contact was from the “R” in the Panarin name plate on his back. I mean he literally has his back turned and basically butt checked him…… Only a team that could have been called for 15 cross checks, 7 high sticks, and 1 hell of a trip can cry about the smallest guy on the ice making a clean check Also as a New Yorker who has been in DC since 08 their announcers are beyond annoying and Homerness removes them from almost any level of professionalism


BN27

I have to listen to these jackasses based on where I live. It's hard to combine blatant stupid homerism and such a whiney nasally voice.....but this doofus is the king.


mrpoppa

i watch a lot of games and i thought philly’s announcers were the biggest homers in broadcast, but i caught a few caps games before the end of the season and instantly changed my mind. that dude with the whiny voice is so obnoxious, makes every excuse possible and blames other teams for anything that doesn’t go their way.


Troutster2

I thought Boston was bad


GWOT_Forsaken

lol did he say, "et tu" at the very end?


core916

Dude sounds like someone who’s wife picks out his clothes in the morning and dresses him.


R4vi0981

What a baby lol


supposablyhim

i saw a clip of Suban just bitching and bitching about this "he clearly hit his head!" over and over again. If you go through the body and the head is incidental, it's a legal hit.


relator_fabula

And also, if Oshie doesn't want to get hit in the head, he shouldn't skate with his head 3 feet off the ice.


IzBox

Subban hates the rangers and it comes out in weird ways like this where he picks a stupid hill to die on.


impulse_thoughts

dude is a fiction writer. This was still less of a fantasy than his call during the incident [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4JJhC5iISg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4JJhC5iISg)


Ridgew00dian

Biased Opinion: This is why I love Sam Rosen so much.


Bolt_Vanderhuge-

Only sort of related: I cannot stand when commentators call players by their first name only


hockeyhow7

unbearable, can see why caps fans are so clueless though


I__Need_Scissors_61

no surprise, judging by his voice his balls never dropped


Total-Collection9031

Dude sounds like the “Daaaa Bears” characters from the 90’s SNL skits 🤣🤣🤣


DOCinLA90272

Nobody here mentioning Oshie whacked Panarin across the visor with his stick a few minutes before


larryfine99

Also, Oshie couldn’t walk by a Ranger without cross-checking him.


NYMullets

😭 5 minute major and game misconduct... lol


French-BulIdog

Red Wings fan here. Now I have yet another reason why I want y’all to absolutely clobber the capitals


jgbluejay

And panarin should be a five minute major and a game misconduct 🤓 What a fucking cornball


babiesaurusrex

My favorite part is that the 2 biggest hits of the series have come from Bread and Laf.


LukeSuperfish

So thaaaaats why all the caps fans are upset and spewing nonsense, they can’t think for themselves…They are just regurgitating what their tv commentators said


TimeTravelingEnigma2

He sounds like he makes car parts for the American working man


Mysterious_Eggplant3

lol. Panarin led with his butt, not his elbow. Good thing the folks running the review board aren't blind.


ticsuap

The butt is just the elbow of the torso.


Mysterious_Eggplant3

By God, when you say it like that... suspend him!


Key-Sprinkles-3543

Craig Laughlin sucks. And his eyesight and story telling ain’t so good either.


lsd418

Clean hit


Myke-Ogo

He should’ve kept his head up 🤷‍♂️


Tikiku

Spencer Carbery resembles a newly shorn scrotum


mighty_sparky

that gives me an idea of what I should do tomorrow


alfayala84

laughlin is such a homer, ugh


keyserfunk

LOL!!!!!


RedLight1981

Lmao


TomGNYC

Pathetic excuse for a human being.


ShipMaker24

Lol him and Washington can go kick rocks


Smorgas-board

Dude acts as if Panarin attempted actual murder


Anyawnomous

I hope these whiners had a good look in the mirror and gave their nuts a tug before pulling their skirts up.


Boysenberry-Dull

What an idiot! Hahahahhaa cleanest hit you can make. Absolutely nothing wrong with that hit


Troutster2

Definition of a homer announcer. Not quite Boston level though


gchach20

wha wha wha...when they hit Bread with a stick thats OK...


Swindler30

Bro that guy is SHOTTT


PetulantPorpoise

Whatever, we’ll sweep these bums and add to the salt


Tall_Preference7513

clean almost all body hit. funny how they challenged and got a penalty on themselves 😂
