Fans calling for NBC to fire Mike Milbury after Muzzin comments

The NHL on NBC has been doing a great job covering the NHL's playoffs and brought out some of the biggest names in broadcasting to their telecast. Then there's Mike Milbury. Leave it to the shoe-hitting ex-NHLer to say a player is faking an injury for a whistle, and boy the fans aren't happy about it.

When the Maple Leafs Jake Muzzin went down awkwardly and tried to get up, he lost feeling in his toes. As the live broadcast on NBC carried on and zoomed in on Muzzin, Milbury had some things to say that have the hockey world in shock...

Really, Mike....what a joke. Here's some of the best comments from fans who are calling for Mike to find another sport.

Why is Mike Milbury still employed? Who thought I'd miss Pierre working literally every game?

If you were to believe Mike Milbury, Jake Muzzin faked injury so hard he put himself in the hospital and out at least the of the remainder of this series just to buy his PK D some breathing time at the end of the game.

@NBCSports should dump Mike Milbury for that garbage. Yeah stay down Muzzin and let everyone catch their breath.

Much better effort. Much better outcome. Hoping Muzzin not seriously hurt. Mike Milbury is a graceless knob.
