My biggest issue with her commentary is that it’s shown zero signs of maturing or improvement over the course of many years in the booth now. She’s just so monotone, and adds no insight or value to the broadcast. Everyone is a little nervous, awkward and whatever when they start, but they grow into the job. She just doesn’t seem to have the skill set to be a competent in-game analyst.
Keep her on the panel for sure, and absolutely keep working on expanding the roles of women and people of colour in the hockey world, but surely there must be another female sportscaster who, through experience would grow into a solid analyst.
It’s just not Cassie. It’s not a question of her knowledge, it’s almost all personality, and she doesn’t have the type required for the job.
