Mickey Redmond swears during face-off
During yesterday's game against the Minnesota Wild, the Detroit Red Wings were setting up for a crucial face-off in their defensive zone.
Just as the puck was set to drop, the referee delayed the play, ruling that both players jumped the gun and signalling the Minnesota player to exit the face-off circle.
What the f*ck! Sheesh!

But it does appear he was only saying 'drop the puck'.
Despite the Redmond's cuss during the broadcast, he's proven to be one of the best in the business.
As per the Athletic, last year, the Red Wings sports duo Mickey Redmond and Ken Daniels emerged as the best commentators in the NHL by racking up top ratings across all hockey broadcasts.
