Why Pierre McGuire sucks

For those of you who aren’t watching TSN’s World Junior hockey games, you won’t know who this is, but Pierre McGuire is the side color commentator for the junior games. Now with the NHL not playing, this is just about the only hockey we have to watch on tv, so it’s something that we just cannot stop watching.Here’s my starting list of why Pierre McGuire Sucks: This is not in any particular order. As the games continue, I’m sure I’ll have more to add.

    1. He’s Sydney Crosby’s bitch – Pierre won’t shut up about him. As of this rant, the only goals Crosby has scored have been from the side of the net, either getting a puck fed to him, or him banging at the side of the net.
    2. He won’t shut up about the 2 line pass – Make your point once a game, and that’s it. Please do not mention it EVERYTIME there’s a two line pass. His quote this past game was:

      “After last game, I received 2 emails from assitant GM’s who have said that they are now siding with me on the 2 line pass.”

      Seriously…who gives a flying fuck.

    3. The useless random facts – I don’t care what players had for breakfast, or at the age of 6 somebody got their first pair of skates.


    I miss Jim Van Horne. Wherever you are Jim…please come back.

    Thanks for the Web site.

    I just returned from Quebec on xmas vacation and was going to start a Pierre Mcquire sucks site. I was listening to the world Juniors on Tsn HD and turned it to the french station non hd just to shut the f@#ker up. It pisses me off how many times a period he says shit like “just like I told you” “his little sister plays varsity badminton”

    Why doesnt he learn the players names instead. I think it is because he has nothing clever to say about hockey so his fills the airways with Shat.

    Cannot wait till his contract is up

    For me it’s the annoying clichés. This year it’s “active stick.” During the 2005 NHL draft show it was “going forward” instead of just saying “the future.” By the time that show ended, McGuire had infected the entire panel; they were all saying “going forward.”

    If he had any valuable knowledge of hockey he would be in the business of coaching or scouting. He’s still fairly young, but obviously washed up. He is a huge waste of TSN’s money, in my opinion.

  6. Habfan59 says:

    Doing the Habs-Blackhawks game tonight, and can’t stop talking ab out the World Juniors. And, now, McGuire has used “active” twice more. A moment ago he commented on Patrick Lalime’s “active pads.” Just shoot me now…I’m going to RDS.

    I need to make a Pierre McGuire sucks site that people can submit useless Pierre quotes!

  8. HB says:

    Now it’s Maguire’s ‘Monsters’…every other player he mentions is a ‘monster’…give me a break. No one cares.

  9. Monster says:

    My hats off to Pierre, sure he dosen’t shut up for 60 minutes but he is in the game and calls plays before they happen.. MONSTER ROOF DADDY WHAMMY HAMMERTIME WHOOP DEE WHOOP FIVE HOLE!

  10. Matt says:

    how about skate control?

  11. GB says:

    It looks like the only way this bozo is leaving is by hitting the sponsors.TSN pays 3 million for a hockey anthem that CBC made famous in hopes of upping their ratings, when all they had to do is get a true color commentator, not some name dropping biased want-a-be coach. I believe TSN is totally inept at broadcasting a hockey game to the standers to which most Canadians are accustom to.

  12. Matt D says:

    I LOVE how all he does is talk about theWorld jrs during an nhl game…when the world jr are not even close to starting! like WTF call the fuckin hockey game and not talk about how so-n-so did what during the world jrs

  13. S says:

    Pierre maybe annoying but the guy knows his shit. I would love to see you guys next to him talking about hockey, he will make you look like an idot!

  14. Narfolee says:

    Ugh. I HATE THIS GUY SOOO MUCH!

    all his little comments. In about 5 minutes, the other night during a Habs game, he said “World Class Player” 4 times!`

    ugh/

  15. Annonymous says:

    he doesnt shut up. when everly scored in the world juniors to tie canada with russia, gord miller shouts: “Can you Believe it!” Then while everyones exciting and cheering pierre mcguire comes in with his annoying raspy voice and goes on a rant for 5 minutes blaming the russian player for icing it earlier. Mcguire hopefully you read this. NOBODY CARES. He just takes the feeling out of eery situation and he always gives his opinion on everything.

  16. rw says:

    How about Taveras’ majical shot on net to tie the game?Sounds like Doug Henning

  17. AJ says:

    Please everyone email TSN and tell them to get this guy off the air. No wonder the major US networks don’t pick up the NHL – NBC uses him for color. yeesh. Is it only me or does he sound like he has a mouth of marbles.

  18. adam says:

    yah fuck when pierre talks its like scratching nails on a fucking chalkboard. hes so confident in what ever he says but its like come on your the dumbest shit ever.

  19. Dave says:

    You guys probabably saw it this past weekend on the Sunday game between Pittsburgh and NYR when they got in a huge debate over fighting and once again Pierre became Sidney’s bitch and wanted the league to ban fighting. This guy is a joke and needs to be off the air. NBC and otherwise.

  20. gmanyk says:

    Do you have any idea how we can convince TSN that McGuire is ruining our enjoyment of watching hockey. I have to mute our TV everytime he opens his mouth witch obviously detracts from the game.

  21. Sayth says:

    I can’t stand listening to this guy. The other night he missed a goal cause he wouldn’t shut up and let the play by play be told and then last night when the leafs got pounded there were 2 penalties I would have liked to known about, but he just kept going on about random facts that NO ONE CARES ABOUT!

    If I want to know the week by week history of 5 players each night, I would Google it! 10 seconds of info on a player is good, then get back to the game, not go on and ON for 3 whistles. We NEED to get this joke off TSN. CBC had has the BEST commentators!

    Please, Please, Please fire this asshole.

    lol

    Pierre is just a hockey groupie and self proclaimed insider. When I listen to this guy on the radio all he does is talk about who he knows, what their favorite cereal is and with what player he had a beer with the night before. This guy drops the name bombs like Vietnam.

    Here’s an example which I think summarizes Pierre McGuire’s imbecility:

    “What is Vincent Lecavalier thinking right now Pierre?”

    “Well I don’t know him well enough Mitch. If you asked me how Dion Phaneuf or Shane Doan felt, I could tell you what they were thinking but I just don’t know Vinny well enough to tell what’s going on inside his head.”

    Just stfu pierre. Honestly. Just stfu. Shut that large mouth that’s placed on your large misshaped eraser head.

    You don’t know what Doan is thinking. You don’t know what Phaneuf is thinking. All you are is a horny schoolgirl groupie who annoys the shit out of nhl players by constantly going around and badgering them.

    Pierre, I suggest you give the hockey world a break by quitting and never coming near the game of hockey again.

    At least by quitting you’ll have ample time to play with Dutchy’s big long stick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_i5zXLZHGI4.

    I simply will not listen to “any” game now where McGuire is commentating. The fact is, I tune in to listen to hockey and not to this guy. The announcers do a fine job and I don’t need this useless ongoing babble that McGuire figures we want to listen to.
    I listened to 30 seconds of the Pittsburgh/Washington game yesterday, but when I heard McGuires voice I dove for the remove and switched Channels. Sorry TSN, THIS GUY IS BORING!

  27. Bill Adams says:

    Further to last, the frustration of McGuire’s boring comments lead me to program TSN out of my cable so I wont be tempted to listen anylonger. TSN doesnt seem to care who listens and who doesnt. So be it. I’d rather not. No more temptation!!

  28. graziano says:

    I listen to Pierre McGuire constantly on tsn , on inernet and on our local sports radio station. I think the guy is a genius and knows all the ins and outs about hockey. When he speaks its all facts and when he gives opinions on what teams should do, he is always right on. I really dont get all you haters but there will always be haters for any person who seems more intellectual then they are.

  29. graziano says:

    Also, Im a huge habs fan, and would love to have Pierre McGuire behind the bench. That guy could make any hockey teams system work! Only thing..can he speak french? I dont know. Sad that to be a montreal coach that that is a requirement as I strongly believe that you are only good in hockey for your skill and not the language you speak.

  30. Hitch Rules says:

    Pierre stinks as much as that moron, Mike Milbury, THE worst GM in history – he and Doug MacLean. And yet, they’re allowed to “opine” on national TV.

    Pierre’s just a shill for the Pens, as well as the O-6, particulary Canadian, teams.

    It’s kills his massive ego that the Blue Jackets actually made the playoffs, so, he bashes away!

    Let’s not forget his “stellar” record as Head Coach of Hartford: 23-37-7! Wow, Pierre, Wow!
