Still remember Game 7 vs Vancouver, in awe of Iginla for the second goal.
at the 1:27:26 mark.

An absolute staple for HNIc, always the third of fourth crew sometimes, but just a great color guy. A familiar voice from growing up watching hockey.

Him and Ball were great together the last few years, especially the Dallas series. Old school, but didn't mind having his opinion and sticking too it.

RIP and condolences to his family
I absolutely hated Millen in that series, I thought he was a Canuck homer, totally urged them in the marathon Game 6 if you go back and listen.

So I unjustifiably hated him for years, thought he sucked. But then put that aside and realized how good he was, one of the few that criticized refs and players over the year and as someone said earlier, he never seemed to age, kept up with the changing NHL.
