As we reported in the past few hours, a controversy slightly marred the beautiful Andrei Markov evening at the Bell Centre.
The controversy in question was triggered by Sportsnet, which did not show a single second of the superb ceremony featuring Andrei Markov.
It generated a massive reaction on social media and, in the last few minutes, a well-known journalist broke the silence on the subject.
Stu Cowan comments on Sportsnet's strange move not to broadcast the ceremony for Andrei Markov
I certainly hope it doesn't have anything to do with Markov's nationality.
According to Stu Cowan, things would likely have been different if Andrei Markov had been a Toronto Maple Leafs player.
"Hearing from quite a few Habs fans upset that Sportsnet didn't show the Andrei Markov Homecoming Night pre-game ceremony last night at Bell Centre.
Hard to understand why they wouldn't.
Might have been different if it was a Maple Leafs player in Toronto.
