Hardly his most trollish post.

I actually think there's no better PBP guy than Ball. But Cuthbert, Highson (when there's no Canucks involved) and Miller are all good. NBC's Emrick is a guy that a lot of people like but I don't really see it. His voice is old timey, so I guess if you want a newer version of Foster Hewitt or Ed Whalen, great.
And there's really not that many colour people that I like so it doesn't matter. Hrudey is fine as a tandem with Ball because they get along so well, but he has his faults. The US guys are no better. Eddie O on NBC is pretty good.
But NBC has McGuire (yuck), Milbury, (bah), Boucher (meh), Jones (nah). They do have Roenick, which is always good. They also have a lot of part time guys who also work for TSN, so there's no US v. Canadian broadcast advantage there.
