Never knew he had any connections or even insight into the game. I guess the CBC wants a new image going into their new deal, but I hope this is just the first step. An almost complete overhaul of both the CBC and Sportsnet crews is what I am hoping for. There are very few commentators I hope they keep around long-term (Friedman, Hughson, Petrillo, Oake, Hrudy, Simpson, Millen, and Ball I guess for CBC). I can't really find anyone worth keeping on Sportsnet though, Millard is decent, but TSN still offers far better analysts. Some of their play-by-play guys and interviewers are fine, but I honestly don't like any of their in-studio analysts or commentators.
