I sat next to Rob Kerr at a couple pre-season games his year. He's incredibly well-prepared for every game. He also seems more and more relaxed in the role (during games), which I think reflects in the product this season.
And personally, as somebody who watches the Sportsnet product, I'd much rather have insight into the hows and whys of hockey decisions rather than get "scoops" about what's happening. (For instance, WHY Jarome Iginla was traded to a certain team for certain assets interests me more than knowing which team he's going to).
