Mike Milbury is unprofessional and an embarrassment to both NBCSN and the NHL.

He regularly attacks players, be it Alexander Ovechkin, Sidney Crosby, Corey Perry, or, most recently, John Scott. These are not criticisms that you see normal broadcasters make. These comments are immoral and sometimes even vicious. Take this comment about Corey Perry for example: "If I were playing against Corey Perry, I'd probably want to hurt him in some painful and permanent way," These disgusting comments shine a bad light on the NHL.

Recently, Milbury has turned his attention to John Scott, an enforcer in the NHL. John Scott was voted into the NHL All Star game by the fans. Milbury believes that Scott does not belong in the All Star game, because he is not a flashy player. This is not a problem. Every year I feel some players should be in the All Star game over some players that have made it. Milbury, trying to be an outspoken broadcaster voiced his dislike for Scott being selected. Milbury, during John Scott’s introduction said “moving along, moving right along.”

This is not about Milbury making himself look bad. He is strongly disliked by fans and players alike already. This is about him making NBCSN and NHL look bad. NBCSN gives the NHL a national stage. This stage is used to watch teams you wouldn’t normally watch and attract new fans to the sport. What do new fans to the sport see? They see this rat attacking players, not in a logical or intelligent way, but in a classless aggressive way. Hockey players are well known for being great to hockey fans (except Milbury, who assaulted a fan in his playing days) and it would help the NHL grow if this was showcased through the broadcasting team.

Hockey is moving away from its more violent past. It is time to remove the goon from the broadcast team. I will not being watching any hockey programming that contains Mike Milbury.
