Ron Maclean is facing criticism for comments made on Hockey Night in Canada

Ron MacLean, the host of Hockey Night in Canada, has faced criticism in the sports media world for his hosting style. He has continued to distance himself from viewers and has consistently found himself in trouble.

During an interview with Brian Burke, the President of Hockey Operations for the Pittsburgh Penguins, about the NHL's Pride initiative, MacLean's approach was criticized. While Burke was praised for the interview, MacLean was called out:

Some have long suggested that MacLean is out of touch, and this incident could be further proof. MacLean also made matters worse by bringing up Aristotle's outdated philosophies.

While everyone is entitled to their own opinions on the subject, MacLean's reluctance to address the issue directly on national television was not well received
