Hrudy is a great guy, I remember back in the day when there were barely any Flames games that were televised without having Centre Ice and I'd go to Sheleileghs to watch Flames games and he'd be sitting there watching like the rest if us. We all knew who he was, but just left him alone.
BUT.. I think that he's kind of losing his touch as a colour guy. I think he's a great analyst for the national broadcasts, but I don't really love him doing colour. I actually really like Greg Millen and Ball together. But I also think it would be pretty sweet if the Flames had colour from Meaghan Mikkelsen on TV. I never listen to The Fan now that I'm in BC, and I absolutely detest Derek Wills, so I didn't even realize she normally does colour on the radio now? But yeah, Wills can't call a game to save his life. His intonation is just the worst.

Yeah, she replaced Loubo after he left in the summer.
