I'm just responding to the person who mentioned the arena announcers, I haven't been to a game yet this year, Flames or otherwise, so I haven't experienced this increased noise firsthand. Just giving my thoughts on arena announcers who are overly emphatic and loud.

I was never crazy about Beesley back in the day for the reasons mentioned, but I have a tonne of nostalgia from his voice by now, especially the 04 run. Agreed he does a good job and has been doing it long enough to be excellent at his craft. I still prefer deep voices in that role, like Dallas' for example. Just my 2 cents.

And the hype up guy sounds annoying, I didn't know they were doing that to such a level this year.
