NBC is off to an embarrassing start this hockey season

Posted by Justin Bourne under Fails, Wait What on Jan 17, 2013

One of the biggest, most memorable chunks of the 2011-2012 NHL season for me was the amaaaazzzing Pittsburgh/Philadelphia playoff series, in which tons of goals were scored, hits were thrown, and hate was shared. In the end, Philly downed their Pennsylvanian rivals in a hard fought six games. NBC, by all rights, recognized this huge moment, and used it in their promo for what not-so-coincidentally happens to be the first game of the NHL season.

And they fucking got who won the series wrong.

I don’t even know what to say about this. I’ll leave it with the same thing Wyshynski said over at Puck Daddy: how does this happen?
