As for Campbell my guess is to why she is not used more is because she is awful. She is a poor/awkward speaker and offers very little insight into what is going on. It is borderline saying that she played at a higher level than others on the fan in terms of quality of hockey and womens hockey is so far removed from the NHL game may as well have a former NFLer on the FAN talking about the game since he played a game at a "high level."
Again if I missed the green text here then ignore if it was serious I could not disagree with the post more. Less Campbell on any platform is good for hockey fans and a big no thanks to Torie Peterson who has shown no ability to do that type of job at all.

That would be fine if the ex nhl player offered actual insight. Few do (rogers did). Most recycle the same canned answers.
Im for going outside the box on this, even for just one season.
If Monday Night Football can bring in a comedian, then the flames radio broadcast can surely bring in a well prepared female colour commentator
