Love hearing his name being mentioned by eastern media.
The Chicago broadcast crew is one of my favourites for teams the Flames play on the road. I find them to be less homery than a lot of other broadcast crews. Of course every home town crew is going to be homers to a degree because that is their main audience, but they seem to usually be fair and make exciting calls even when it isn't their team dishing it. Similar to our crew in that regard actually.

Also, I hope Hall is OK. Did he come back during the game?

Probably expected when you gut your team and are garbage for years and years
Unfortunately, the Flames aren't a big draw right now for a lot of home teams. Can't completely blame some of the fans for sitting out a meaningless Monday night game. Meaningless for them I mean.
