I don't mind Servalli, but he definitely does not come across as professional as Friedman.
|
Was how Frank was OK to bash a star player out of nowhere a tell that he does actually just make up most of his stuff? :) Seems someone that actually relies on relationships with players/orgs would be instinctively far more careful about what they say.
|
Should he bash any player? No. Regardless if they are a star player or 13th forward.
Does it make for good entertainment? Yes, and as a media personality that can keep you relevant. Stan Fischler, Don Cherry, Sean Avery, etc.
Does he make things up? I doubt it or he would be relegated to Eklund status. I think he is more Pierre Maguire than Bob MacKenzie, but does not look like a lizard so he is more palatable in my view.

He should be in a different group than Cherry, Avery etc... who are just entertainers no? Servalli is supposed to be calling up teams and trying to get inside info, which he is only getting with solid relationships with the org/management. Those others guys could do and say whatever they want, and the only thing keeping them employed was being entertaining, and not talking about how people coming into the country should honor it's history of course :)
