That being said, his calls haven't been that biased. He's said a lot of positive things about both teams. I think he's done an alright job.
I generally agree.

It really would have been neat to hear Rick Ball call this series. Not just because he is awesome at his job, and not because he calls the Flames regional games. It would be great because he is invested in the Flames, and he was a long time Vancouver local broadcaster. It doesn't get much more balanced than that.
