Mike Milbury is a lightning rod for controversy and, Sunday night after the Penguins won the Stanley Cup, a Predators fan let out his frustration towards the wildly unpopular NBC analyst.
Warning: there is a lot of cursing in this video.

By my count the fan had a hat trick of expletives.
Milbury lost his train of thought during the fan’s tirade while Liam McHugh, to his credit, got the former GM back on track after joking “your fan club is still here.”
But that wasn’t the only fan who showed displeasure towards Milbury.
Several Predators supporters brought anti-Milbury signs to Bridgestone Arena for Game Six. According to the fans, they were greeted by NBC Sports representatives who tried to trade NBC merch for the signs.

Was just offered a hat in exchange for this sign by @NBCSports on our own plaza. Censorship much? #Predators @NHL #StanleyCupFinal pic.twitter.com/BMl4XWjMvk

The signs were based off Milbury’s analysis that Subban had it coming after Crosby shoved the Predators defenseman’s head into the ice several times.
