I've generally been a fan of Cassie. Frequently has had good insights, but I think it's tough to do that (for anyone!) day in and day out game after game. Coming up with a new way of saying things, or putting them in context is not easy when it's something that happens in every game.

Last night was over the top for me on the McDoofus fanboi/fangirl page and I eventually just muted the TV. Not her...it's mostly Sportsnet and I wish there were some way that fans in Calgary (especially) could make that well known. It's just as bad with Debrusk, so it clearly isn't just her. I get they appreciate his speed and artistry blah blah, but I don't want to hear about it every 15 seconds - and it doesn't matter who's doing the saying!!

I get that Sportsnet mostly wants to market to the huge Coiler fan base. But there are other teams and other players in the league and it's infuriating to them/us. Sportsnet needs to get a message on this loud and clear. Twitter, emails, letters, whatever.
