Meh, Rob isn't the best pbp guy but he knows hockey and his love of the game is always evident, all in all I can live with him.

If I was going to complain about someone on the Sportsnet broadcasting team it wouldn't be Mr. Kerr, no, it would most definitely have to be Mr. Simmer. I hate to rag on the guy as he seems like an extremely nice man, but by god does he bring nothing to the telecast. Rob seems to have much more insight then he does with regards to the in's and outs of the game, Charley's comments are always the same, canned cookie cutter responses he trots out every game. His voice is monotone and boring and for some reason he never wants to relate to his own experience as a player, you'd never even know the guy even played in the league if Rob wasn't always mentioning him being a part of the "famous triple crown line".

It would be nice if they could get a younger ex-player to take over in that role, someone with some personality and someone who has an intimate understand of how the game is played today, not how it was played 30 years ago. And if that guy happened to be an ex-Flame, I wouldn't mind that either. Although I'm guessing it's easier said then done to get a even somewhat well known ex-player for the kind of $$ Sportsnet is likely paying.
