That blows. He was the best thing about the broadcast. Whoever replaces him is pretty much guaranteed to be a downgrade...short of maybe Chris Cuthbert, there is no better in Canada.

But...but....he'll do both right? Them and us?
Thus begins the 7 stages of grief
Also who will team with Hrudey? Wills?
Also, can Hrudey go with him?

That’s a damn shame. He was class. Can’t wait to find out who’s going to replace him

No. They'll put Monster Truck on double duty. Because this is how being a Flames fan feels now.
