Hockey Night In Canada reporter saves drowning man in Philadelphia.
A day after he battled the NHL commissioner on Hockey Night in Canada, MacLean sprang from his seat while having lunch with Don Cherry to help rescue a man attempting suicide in the Delaware River in Philadelphia.

"A woman with a heavy French accent comes through the patio doors, and she's all panic-stricken and saying, 'Help! Help! There's a man in the water!'" MacLean told Jeff Marek of Hockey Night in Canada Radio.

2. Yes he is.

Did you see him interview Bettman during the last game?

All class. He should have got up and smashed Bettman right in the face.

The smarmy, disgusting, arrogant lawyer side of the NHL commish was on display. His prickish non-answers and confrontational attitude was deserving of at least a slap in the face...he's a pig.

MacLean's always kept the peace - but I would have liked to see him rip Bettman apart in that 'interview'.
