Ron MacLean was terrible. He had this notion that he had gained some unrivaled credibility as an analyst and he was terrible at it. Strombo knows his place. The problem is the other guys. Basically, everything is fine as long as Friedman is on my screen. When he's not, there's not much reason to listen.
The broadcast teams are hit or miss, but yeah, when you've got Cuthbert and Miller calling for NBC it really exposes people like Romanuk. Romanuk calling a playoff game just massively detracts from its sense of importance and grandeur.
