Jason Priestley (yes, THAT Jason Priestley) narrates and directs this sordid tale of the worst owner in NHL history. I imagine this might be a tough watch for Leafs fans but an interesting tale nonetheless.

Jason Priestly played hockey as a kid and is a huge fan.

Not that I'm a fan of his (or 90s sideburns), but I remember him being in the USA Hockey magazine. Pretty sure he was a huge Kings fan and he did some of those celebrity/NHL player charity games back in the day. So I guess I have more respect for him than other 90210 cast members.

He also had one of the more underrated SNL hosting gigs. Not often the host takes part in the cold open.

Note that Priestley starts out the skit in hockey skates (don't blame him one bit for not going near those damnable toe picks, I only wore those once the first time I ever skated...NEVER AGAIN) and when it switches to the stunt double he's wearing figure skates. Regardless, I absolutely loved this skit when it aired.

I think the next skit had him in the title role of "The Life and Times of Johnny Hildo" and the only joke was that people just kept calling him "Dildo."

Anyway, back to the subject at hand--I hope Harold Ballard is burning in hell.
