Doubt it.

The people who whine about commentators and play by play men are much louder than the silent group that doesn't mind them.

That said most of the ex-goalies are horrible. I hate Glenn Healey and Greg Millen. Hrudey is better than them and still not amazing as he is constantly analyzing the game from the goalie perspective and being overly critical at times of the goaltending. It's not all about the goalies Hrudey! I guess John Davidson was one of the best color guys and he was an ex-goalie so maybe my generalization doesn't fit. Oh and Ferraro is horrible, just horrible.

I didn't mind Millions, Loubardias and I don't mind Kerr. He could be better but he doesn't negatively impact my game watching experience. Most of the color commentators mentioned above do impact my game watching experience. Simmer I don't find that insightful but at least he doesn't have terrible opinions like Healey, Millen and Ferraro do/did.
