Charlie seems like a great guy but he added absolutely nothing to the broadcast. He never offered much in the way of analysis despite a very successful NHL career. So many replays he would just... say out loud what was happening on the screen. "And again, the shot comes in, and the goalie makes the stop." Yes, thank you Charlie, we already have a play-by-play guy. Hrudey offers more insight in a period than Charlie did in half a season.
