There are two ways to be a good colour-commentator:
- Be insightful
- Be entertaining
I feel that Hrudey is almost always entertaining, and his goalie point of view allows him more flexibility with the "be insightful" part.

I don't really complain about any of them including Cassie. The color person has little bearing on my enjoyment of watching a game. It's the reason I posted because I see a lot of people here complain about her and I don't understand why it's a big deal. Trust me Oilers fans think Hrudey is terrible just like we think Remenda is and both fan bases are correct here but why does it really matter? We all saw the Flames win a big game in Boston last night. This is really all we should be discussing as I don't understand the fixation with Cassie as she has no bearing on the outcome of the game and the outcome of the game ultimately determines the enjoyment we get out of watching our favorite team play.
