I've felt Brian Burke was being essentially groomed for this when he was first hired by Sportsnet.
I expect HNIC to continue on without a beat to be honest: the vast majority of ppl tune in to watch hockey...If i am not tuning in for Friedman, Intermission is time to grab a beer, use the washroom or channel surf to another game for me.
