Did he sing the anthem without missing a word or falling down? Yes
Does he resemble Calgary's culture (assuming they want to portray that culture as 'cowboy')? Yes
Other than those two check marks, I don't see what else was good about that performance. Couldn't imagine a playoff game opening with that low toned dreary voice.

Bang on. Performance was fine, but I don't see anyone getting fired up after the anthem is over. The great thing about Heather was that you could feel the enthusiasm and excitement at the end without it being over the top. George never even made it halfway up.
