A very popular host strongly criticizes Canadiens fans and calls them big morons

Last night, while Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers were at the Bell Centre to face the Montreal Canadiens, he was loudly booed by the crowd on numerous occasions.

And clearly, this has sparked reactions from several media outlets.
