I enjoyed Joanne Courtney during the Olympics and I like the Grand Slam coverage as it is usually Kevin Martin and Joan McCusker. Sportsnet also uses different camera angles (a camera that from either end that gives the viewer a real eye for how much curl the ice has) and does "around the ring coverage" showing some of each game at a time. I have really had enough of Russ Howard over the years and will often watch with the sound muted, as mentioned by Squiggs, shut up Russ and lets hear the players discuss their strategy/ shot. In example Squiggs used however Vic and Russ may have been talking thinking we wouldn't be able to hear the players as Morris and Hebert both tossed their mic's earlier in the game.
