Swap "Rob Kerr" for "Blake Comeau", retain this mentality, and the entire board would have to be shut down.

I think we can all agree that Kerr is an improvident to Jim Hughson.

Jim hughson, when he's not doing a Vancouver/Calgary game, is the best in the business.

This is why I don't bother going to games. Iv'e been given the stink eye for making noise in the lower bowl. Rob Kerr is refreshing and make watching on TV fun. Would you all prefer the CBC broadcasts where they all try so hard not to be bias just to end up being more bias towards the team playing the Flames.
Was wondering when you were going to show up...going to use the "forest ranger defense" again?

He sucks at his job. End of story.

I don't think he is good but I don't think he is as awful as many do and certainly not embarrassing. I think he is much better suited for his previous job on the FAN where I thought he was excellent.

He is better than Loubardias and better than Quinn in Edmonton, which isn't saying much but that seems to show he isn't completely out of place on Sportsnet with the "talent" they seem to bring in.

Chris Cuthburt or Gord Miller do a much better job than Hughson on any given night.

After the disgrace on CBC tonight no one should ever, EVER complain about Rob Kerr again!

Yup, all the American guys on NBC and Versus are better than Hughson as well.

Rob Kerr is amazing and we're so lucky to have him

Hughson and company is very bad.

Hughson is one of the best, he just shouldn't be allowed to do Canucks games, because he has no capability of maintaining level. How many times did we hear about someone who wasn't even playing tonight in Kesler? Enough already.

Okay I admit I haven't listened to him call many games this year, so perhaps he has found some other adverbs, but hearing him use it just now reminded me of his first several games where he said it on every play.

Kerr is just a weird guy. I guess at least he pulls for the Flames.

How can posters not like his final minute game calling of the game. So much excitement I was jumping out of my chair. At least he has some passion.

Kerr doesn't sound too bad now, but his goal calls are a bit too soccer-ish. Also when he makes a mistake, he corrects it. While this isn't normally a bad thing, it's more distracting than the mistake in the first place.

Kerr is allright. I've heard a lot worse. At least he sounds like he cares about the game.

To be fair, 13 and 40 look almost alike from the broadcast booth.
