I've started frequently skipped the first intermission on HNIC's first game, having no interest in listening to Don yell that players should be getting their sticks out of the way of shots, or loudly voice his certainty that linesmen throw out centres just so they can puff out their chests and make themselves important. Cherry deserved to be fired today because of his xenophobic comment, but he should have been more nobly put out to pasture a long time ago because he rarely had anything insightful to add about hockey.

The second intermission Headlines segment in the best part of any intermission. It should be moved to the first intermission, and the second should be a round-table discussion on the current game then an Out of Town Scoreboard discussion. They can ditch Burke's segment while they're cleaning house.
