This is why new sports fans don't watch hockey. And it's not just a Flames bashing thing, it's a being sucky thing.

Sports is about entertainment and the halftime/intermission banter is part of it.

Football: Dan Marino and a host of others

Baseball: Cal Ripkin, John Smoltz etc..

Basketball: Shaq and Barkley, hilarious!

Hockey: ##^^&%& PJ Stock

Come on, get some stars in there. Like Trevor Linden or Mats Sundin or Doug Gilmour!

Does hockey television pay that badly they can't get a panel?
More like players just don't want to do it. Hockey is very shy in regards to public talking and personalities.
