You make absolutely no sense. When did I ever say I wanted Rob Kerr back.
Here, I'll make my point really clear:
1. Tomorrow will be a great day for me! I won't have any thoughts of hurting myself or others due to the Sportsnet broadcast. I made a great thai chicken bok choy soup for lunch, unaffected by the Sportsnet broadcast.
2. Rogers bought exclusive rights to NHL games played here in Canada, so we no longer have alternatives for Flames games
3. TSN did a great job
4. CBC NHIC was great
5. Typos aren't tolerated in my work, I don't get how it is in theirs
6. NHL facts should be accurate in an NHL broadcast
7. Annoying talking heads should be replaced with tolerable and enjoyable talking heads
Questions?

People have ebola, Ukraine is burning and the middle east is in chaos but you're asking everyone to type up some angry letters to snet because you don't like the hosts and the hd quality isn't up to snuff. That really should say it all right there.
Every sports broadcast has its issues, especially when you're looking at broadcasting a multitude of games every night across the nation. Take a deep breath, settle down and wait for the network to work through issues that it has probably already noted and enjoy the fact that you can sit at home and watch a variety of national games as opposed to leafs/habs the majority of the time....which was the case when you consider your beloved CBC broadcasts. If TSN had to mass produce on this level right now you can be guaranteed they'd be snuffing up a little as well.....CBC sure had its moments (you'd never know based on your warped recollection of the past though).
P.S. Rogers has pretty much had exclusive rights for all but a few Flames games for years. This is why I find it categorically hilarious that you had no problem (which I'm assuming since you've only now crawled out of the woodwork regarding this issue) with the broadcast in previous years when we actually had bush league talent like Rob Kerr calling games.
