Wills is a glorified fan, with a job related to the team.
He does what he does well, calling play by play.
I don’t get that he is a strategist, or expert analyst, and that’s fine.
He’s just a guy who watches a lot of hockey and is around the team a lot by virtue of his job, but they shouldn’t present him as a guy with insight beyond what should be expected based on what he does
Give him kudos for his strengths and don’t project some sort of wisdom by proximity. Nothing wrong with that
