I’ve never seen anyone in more pain than Lance Lysowski listening to Mike Harrington’s take about Jeff Skinner

  1. welp Skinner ‘25 Conn Smythe pretty much locked up now.

    I couldn’t watch past “a lot of that is on Jeff Skinner”

    How can this person be employed in a role where he interacts with your team’s players? He’s poison.

    Skinner wasn’t without his faults but to blame him as the primary reason for every NHL team he was on never making the playoffs is such a ridiculous take that shows not only a lack of understanding of hockey but team sports in general that I’m amazed that anyone who makes a living reporting on hockey or any other team sport would say it out loud.

    Could Skinner’s play style contribute to a difficult season? Sure. But teams win and lose as a group and to say that “a lot of that is on Jeff Skinner” as if he carries some magic curse with him is absolute nonsense.

    My ears were bleeding the second he opened his mouth. I cannot stand him, I had to stop the video because I knew his take would be terrible.

    Ryan O’Reilly wasn’t a winning player.

    Jack Eichel wasn’t a winning player.

    Sam Reinhart wasn’t a winning player.

    Did Krueger hire this fucking moron to say this? Seriously?? Jeff Skinner hasn’t made the playoffs solely because he’s not a winning player. Yeah man, not like it takes an entire team to make the playoffs regardless of what team you’re on

    What a fucking moron

    I cannot wait for Skinner to win the Cup next year after he scores 40 in the regular season

    Dude, Lance Lysowski is giving like, SNL-level physical reaction comedy here. Do you think he’s mugging?

    Mike Harrington is a fucking loser my god.

  9. This guy is an even bigger jagoff in the locker room postgame. Remarkable how he’s lasted so long writing for this team.

    This is the most braindead thing I’ve ever heard

    Holy shit. Harrington is such a fucking idiot.

  12. sic_transit_gloria

    so if Skinner makes the playoffs next year does that mean he was a winning player after all? what if his team happens to win the cup? or are Jeff Skinner teams doomed to not make the playoff simply by virtue of his being on the team?

  13. Poor Lance. I felt the same way listening to idiot Mike talk in circles

    If Mike Harrington was a basketball fan, dude would be an OG jerker better than Stephen a Smith and skip Bayless. Dude so regarded.

    Harrington should not have a job, all feelings no substance

    Time and time again in his career it has been shown that the lines that Skinner play on improve the numbers of his linemates

    Even the season when he was in Krueger’s doghouse he still improved his linemates corsi numbers and was creating chances in very limited action

    But “he did not lift his team at any point in his career”. If that’s the job of one single player 99% of the NHL needs to be out of the league
