I don't usually complain about the broadcast, but the new HNIC is just terrible.
The host should be on Canadian Idol, not a hockey show. The whole panel sitting in those tall chairs looks weird to me.

I will take a huge dose of Maclean, Cherry, Hrudey, Satellite Hot Stove topped with Bob Cole and Harry Neal making mistakes calling games. Miss it a lot. Even Al Strachan.

What I wouldn't miss is people complaining when an older PBP guy mispronounces a name or gets the wrong one all together. Maher did that too and it made no difference to me, he was great. And so is Bob Cole.

Let's hope Rogers listens and makes changes. Just no more skinny pants dufuses.
