Gazdic needs to apologize, he made the mistake first, fuck that talentless clown, no insider should be able to put a fanbase and organization on blast and get away with it. The POS needs to be off Canuck telecasts.
Luke is a clown.
We don't care about Gazdic at this point – what we do care about is the hypocrisy – in what world would the broadcaster/panel allow a person go against the leaf's and their FANS. In no world would Mr. Friedman be defending him in this case, he would not even have a job! it is the fact that it is brushed aside due to bias and downplay is the issue.
So GazDICK gets a pass despite the fact he’s the one on national television, and any rightful criticism is just written off as losers online? Wow. I like Elliotte but he looks like a fucking tool here. Sure, social media can be a shithole. But it’s still real people with real opinions and feelings. The internet is the way the world is now. Can’t just brush it all aside as some niche thing that hardly anybody uses. If Elliotte hates it so much, why doesn’t he delete his Twitter. He’s shitting on the very people he tweets to every day. Not to mention, when he comes on this show, he’s speaking to the very same people. Elliotte looking like a clown here. You can’t just write off all criticism because it was said online. Like I said, it’s still comprised of real people. GazDICK was way out of bounds when he attacked the Canucks and their fans. He’s the on-air professional. He shouldn’t have done that. Fuck off, Elliotte.
Team Donnie, Elliotte is out of line.
those hair plugs are hilarious….who does that? Does Fruitman really think it's cool? Sign of bigger problems.
i'm a huge friedman fan, he's one of the best. but please don't comment on the over the top comments on luke gadzik when he posted one of the most toxic posts i've seen about any team never mind the canucks. he bought and paid for every slur that comes his way and it doesn't surprise me at all that a biased unprofessional organization like sportsnet would keep someone like that on their panel. i'll be glad when their deal with the nhl expires.
Gazdic got away with his behaviour. he is being rewarded by staying on Canucks broadcasts
Screw Gazdic
Gasdick is not good at what he does, and generalized about an entire group of people based on an experience with five people on the Internet. So he’s stupid and bad at his job.
What prevents Friedman from being a legend is he's a company man. He's a fantastic journalist, but at the end of the day, his allegiance is to his employers. That will keep him from hitting that next level in the industry.
Friedman needs to stop licking Gadz lollipop already.
Gazdic knows what’s up, Canuck fans are total losers… remembering how good I felt when the Oilers won that nuck series! Damn I felt so good 😇🇨🇦❤️👌
Gazdic was no talent nhler lol
Gazdic deserves zero respect from any Canucks fans or media until he makes a wholehearted apology and takes back what he said. He recieved no visible punishment. There is absolutely nothing that supports Elliot's claim that this won't happen the very next chance that brain damaged joke of a human being gets to speak next on a podcast after the Canucks inevitably dust his dog shit team that only ever barely manages to be competitive when they've been gifted a generational talent. This self righteous line of "Defending his teammate" is absolutely pathetic as well. You're not teammates, this isn't a contact sport where you need to stick up for each other when someone does something objectively deplorable. The right thing to do when a coworker does something idiotic that is 100% worthy of being fired is not to falsely protect him from the very deserved repercussions of his actions.
Good to see. Dahli stand up for BCs Team. The way Gadzic blasted the team. The whole province is total disrespect. The fact that he’s still there and didn’t get fired makes no sense. Commenting about the Canucks is just whacked. I changed the channel. The second he’s on the screen.
Donnie, love you after fallowing you for decades, but you turtled here. At least say to Elliot that this is not about the X trolls but about the Canucks fans that Gadzic owes an apology too that still has not come.
Elliotte needs to cash his cheque and shut his mouth, a company man to the end, gagsondicks should have apologized, Donnie is right 👍
Elliotte again, looking like a drifter who just hopped off a CN boxcar after drinking a bottle of Mad Dog 20-20.
gazdic didn't just call out toxic canuck fans on social media… he literally called the team "a joke." get him tf off our broadcasts already.
Stop it guys you’ll get Kevin fired he’ll be associated (smeared) with toxic west coast fans
I don't know how he can call the team itself a joke and be allowed to cover Canucks games as a professional. Forget rewarding garbage twitter trolls by removing him from Canucks games, you're rewarding a garbage analyst crying about said twitter trolls. Guy is bias and bad at his job. The ol grand standing "I want to stand up for my teammate" line is corny too. Lol.
LOL! Honestly, who cares about Gazdic? I could not care less about his opinions on the team, the city, or the fans.
Luke doesn’t deserve to be covering the Canucks, it’s pretty telling he’s biased
Just lost a ton of respect for Friedman, and he’s my favourite analyst. Putting Gazdic on any Canucks games is a slap to the face of Canucks fans, the organization and the city of Vancouver. He hasn’t even apologized. *#%! that guy!
Holy bad audio quality Batman
Remember Don cherry said you people and got cancelled its a fkn joke
Luke loves the fact that he is on Canucks broadcasts and pissing people in BC off. He is a smug troll.
They should give the context of what they're talking about with Gadzic. I wasn't sure what happened, but they spent a while talking about it assuming we knew the details.
If Canucks can't trade for D, then at least see if any of their farmhands can stick. It's better to fail early so at least you know what you have to work on. Audition Juulsen, Woo, Willander, D Petey and Friedman and if you have something great, and if not, well then you tried and you can try for the trade route or dangle a pick after that
How does a team with O’Rielly and Stamko’s have C problems. LOOL. Trashville ain’t looking too good even with all the talent around them.
“judge him on his commentary” ok gazdick is awful at that too, almost as bad as that combover elliotte. they probably can’t afford anyone else because they blew the budget on hiding his bald spot during the broadcasts
Eliiotte is a clown, sandbagged Don there by doing it at the beginning. Don is also obligated in having him on the show.
Sorry Elliotte. It’s not just “internet scum”. It’s a lot of intelligent, normal fans who can smell Luke’s disdain for the Canucks. That’s fine. We just don’t want him on our broadcasts. Also, he’s really not that good at what he does.
No instead we let this idiot keep on with the panel. Are you kidding me, what a joke. The only one that has any credit on that panel is Bieksa.
No need to apologize just quit and go keep gagging on the Oilers. Clown
Gazdik still should have never said what he said. Hel always be a clown. Bieksa would never say that abt the oilers he would just start laughing and making jokes if it happened to him
Luke’s just not a good analyst or panelist, that’s my biggest gripe.
