I honestly could not even form an opinion about whether or not Cassie Campell is a great colour commentator, but I sure as hell am certain that she is not "awful." These opinions are so over-the-top.
It's not what she says that is awful it's her voice and delivery. It's not because she's a woman either, she just doesn't have good voice for TV commentary. Compare Campbell with Doris Burke, who commentates NBA games, and you will see the difference. Campbell is an amatuer and commentating a game well takes some level of expertise. I'm not judging her hockey knowledge, as it's far greater than mine, just don't like her voice or delivery.
