I`ve always thought the North American commentators had some great lines. Back in the days of Screensport and Eurosport we had Richard Boprey talking about "fanned on it" and going "coast to coast". These are commonplace now but had never heard these term before. The other week, Aaron Murphy calls "what a shot, top shelf where they keep the peanut butter" for a high gloveside shot. Whats your favourite?

'Bouncing about like a frog in a blender' that's my favourite Aaron Murphy saying. Or Murphyism as I call them

Mine isn't an Americanism, but my favourite has to be in Sheffield - whenever they have a fight (which for Steeldogs is often) and under Andre Payette it was almost a bench clearance every game and the announcer would always say "that minor altercation was brought to you by Specsavers" and it always has me in stitches.

Whats your favourite? Top shelf where momma keeps the peanut butter, i'm sure is "borrowed" from another, possibly several, NA commentator(s) he has modified it also to where you keep the good whiskey Not really a fan of Murph to be honest, little in the way of emotion/enthusiasm in his voice/commentary As for favourites, I'll get back on that, have a few

An NHL game, guy gets absolutely steamrollered. He try's in vain to get to his feet, the commentator says (Well that's some scrambled eggs right there Jim).

It's not that he a dud, he a points scorer that requires a playmaker something that once again Todd has not signed, Todd did the same to contois, chaumont and caig. When Casey Haines centres chaumont it worked, then when he brought in sacchetti it changed caigs game. These guys have played their whole careers playing the same way, Todd signs them for the points they score then plays then in a system they alien too. Change the coach
