Pierre McGuire embarrasses himself with another idiotic statement live on air

Love him or hate him, there’s no denying the passion of NBC analyst Pierre McGuire.

The longtime hockey analyst has many detractors in the hockey world and their biggest criticism is that… well sometimes Pierre can come off like a bit of a blowhard. The fact is, he’s an extremely knowledgeable and passionate man who cares about hockey maybe more than any normal human being should.

Of course, this past season fans absolutely RIPPED the veteran broadcaster for “mansplaining” to U.S. Olympian and guest analyst Kendall Coyne Schofield, prior to a NBC broadcast. It was truly a cringeworthy moment that only Pierre himself is worthy of providing.

Check it out:



“Tampa’s going to be on your left, Pittsburgh’s going to be on your right," McGuire told Coyne Schofield on air. "We’re paying you to be an analyst, not be a fan tonight."

Uh… Pierre, did you forget that Coyne is a five-time World Championship gold medalist and helped the United States to capture gold at the 2018 Winter Olympics? She understands the game at a higher level than almost anyone and has a communication degree from Northeastern to boot. This woman knows her stuff.

Well… now fans are up in arms again for something else Pierre said, this time in reference to the HORRENDOUS free agent deal handed out to former Winnipeg Jets forward Brandon Tanev. The 27 year old winger who has a career high 14 goals was inked to a head-scratching six year, $21 million deal by the Pittsburgh Penguins on the opening day of free agency.

Your thoughts, Pierre?





Hmmm… you’d think after 31 years in the game you’d understand that a $21 million contract for a depth forward is probably NOT a great idea… whether the analytics say so or not. 

In any case, in honour or Pierre putting his foot in his mouth again let’s take a look at ten times Pierre was awkward as fuck on TV, courtesy of Reddit user CanesForEv4:
