Senators pre-game speech disaster

It's hard to choose the best part. His helmet almost falling off? His mic cutting out? The speech taped to the inside of his shield?

Truly has to be seen to be believed.

I feel bad for the guy. It reminds me of the Might Ducks movie. Not enough funding and was given crap props to do the job. The only thing pathetic on his part was not remembering such a short dialog and having it printed on the inside of the shield. Nice gimmick though; but totally FUBAR'd

I could rewatch the first ten seconds all day. The look on each player's face as he walks by is fantastic. Some guys (Chris Neil, Ray Emery) completely ignore him. Some try to get into it (Alfredsson). Heatley looks like he thinks he's being punk'd. And of course any Mike Commodore is high comedy.

The guy reminded me of the the Lord Humungus in "The Road Warrior"!

Absolutely hysterical. He does do a good job balancing the helmet on his head and preventing it from falling off completely.

Apparently the guy was a professional actor from LA who had been chosen from several auditions. The Sens owner envisioned this as a new marketing campaign, with pre-game speeches as well as TV ads and other spots.

I guess now they have to buy out Emery and this guy.

this is really a good idea, and they did look bad ass comin out after this speech. if it wouldve been executed as it shouldve been it would have been really great for the fans, but the fact that it went wrong, and the ways that it did, were absolutely hilarious. between the players faces, the mic cuttin out, and his helmet almost fallin off i lose it everytime. so funny

Main reaon this backfired, is that it is not something Canadian fans need to prep for a game. Just give us the anthems. This stuff is meant for places like San Jose and Nashville.

Hey!? Where'd the video go??
