Wills’ introduction to the game this afternoon is exactly why he doesn’t belong in the NHL.
It’s THE game of the season, and his tone does absolutely nothing to convey the gravity or excitement of the moment. Instead, he’s reading a phone book, spouting off stats as though they matter, instead of setting the stage.
And that’s not acceptable from an NHL broadcast. I don’t care if he’s cheap - Harnaryan isn’t showing up to the dome in a Rolls Royce either, he still knows how to get excited to call a hockey game on Saturday night.
In fact. I’ll put this out into the world - Harnaryan Singh would be an absolutely fantastic full time radio play by play man for this team. I’ve enjoyed every game he’s called on HNIC, and I think he’s only getting better.
Wills literally sounds more excited to be a friend of whatever Toyota store gave him his Highlander than he does to call NHL hockey.
