I sincerely believe that this is a matter of your own perception. But if you think differently, and you honestly believe the call is tipped egregiously out of balance in favour of the Canucks, then demonstrate it. Go through the games, track the call, make observations and record notes about patterns and consistency for both teams—count his usage of key words and phrases, compare and contrast similarities and differences.

Show me some actual numbers that illustrate what you are talking about, and then I might believe you. Otherwise, I must conclude that this is your own confirmation bias at work.
Geez...is he your brother or something? I wish I had time to re-watch the games, heck I wish I had time to be able to watch 100% of the games on TV but I don't so I won't be able to take notes and present them to you.

I, and it seems a lot of others, feel that Hughson is biased towards the nucks. He does sing the praises of the Flames at times but I, and it seems a lot of others, feel he sings the praises of the nucks more ofthen. But, as you pointed out, I don't have written proof of examples so I guess he isn't.

Hughson is a cunuck broadcaster and I wish they had someone else, and I'm not suggesting a Flames broadcaster, calling the games. I don't enjoy when a game is called with a biased towards either team as it makes the game much less enjoyable, again I have no written proof of this so I'm probably wrong.
