The pre/post/intermission segments actually had a bit of flavor to them.
What was also refreshing was he wasn't a hockey guy, but someone more interested in people. So it brought a fresh angle to the broadcast and his sit downs with players. The upside to that was you also didn't have obvious personal fandoms bleeding through like you do now with these arse-kissing water carriers. Personally I think the host should always be the most impartial personality there.
He also wasn't ancient/bordering on senile.
Go figure HNIC finally did something right and then immediately went right back to amateur hour.
