The Former New York Islanders General Manager and current NHL “analyst” for NBC Mike Milbury had his Wikipedia trolled, and it was pretty funny.

The name Mike Milbury sends chills down my spine. It’s a feeling that can’t be explained unless you’re a New York Islanders fan then at least you know what I’m talking about because you share that same disgusting feeling.

Recently Milbury was in some hot water for his comments on P.K. Subban. Subban was dancing during the pregame warmups and Milbury called him a clown.

Not the first time he’s had the foot-in-mouth disease. The guy just spews nonsense on a nightly basis for NBC Sports but nonetheless, he remains a mainstay with them there. Although today some clever person got some revenge.

Someone went on Wikipedia and edited the page. Check out what it reads:

I honestly can’t think of any better description. “Talking head” and “obsolete mule” could not be more accurate or hilarious. It’s perfect.

The last sentence I’m not sure if that’s edited or truly supposed to be on Wikipedia because it’s not factually wrong. His time with the Islanders was the worst managing in NHL history, the team is still rebuilding going on 12 years since his departure.

I hope this little prank brightened your day, it certainly brightened mine. It can’t take away all he’s done to ruin this franchise, it can’t take away all the awful things he’s spewed out to millions of people over the airwaves but at least I can chuckle to myself about his Wikipedia page.

Well, now I know why my teachers wouldn’t let us use Wikipedia as a source.
