The Carolina Hurricanes‘ Twitter account has no time for Jack Edwards’ homerism.
The Boston Bruins broadcaster tweeted that Andrei Svechnikov was at fault for the injuries the forward suffered during Video game 3.
What NBC has not proven yet, regarding the regrettable personal injury to Svechnikov: the Carolina wing taking part in passion-horse, riding Chara on the back apron of the goal. You poke the bear, you choose your likelihood. No one wished to see Svechnikov damage, but he bit off additional than he could chew.

This just isn’t the initially time Edwards has built light-weight of a possibly critical harm. Dallas Stars defenseman Roman Polak was stretchered off the ice soon after going headfirst into the boards through an Oct contest in opposition to the Bruins. Edwards said the harm was a final result of “terrible hockey karma.” Polak’s agent, Allan Walsh, responded by contacting Edwards a “piece of shit and an complete shame.” Polak had to be taken to the healthcare facility and was diagnosed with a smaller fracture in his sternum.
Edwards is extensively viewed as the worst play-by-play commentator in hockey. The NESN announcer and Andy Brickley ranked past in The Athletic‘s April study on the finest regional NHL broadcasts.
