But yep, Cassie is such a talent, she totally brings so much to the commentary game.
I did not attack you. I attacked your comment. Good to hear about your efforts on gay rights. But that has little relevance to your comment.

Bullspit call leads to PP goal. Eat me NHL Refs. I'm so sick of this inconsistent garbage.

What insight to the game can she provide? She’s never played a game at an NHL level. Never played the physicallity, the schedule all the intangibles. Again she was great in her field but it’s a different ballpark then the NHL. If she’d had a broadcasting background at least I could understand. But again they brought her on to try to appeal to female viewers and that’s fine. But pointing that out shouldn’t cause shock and awe from people here.

How that relates to her talent as a commentator is beyond me.
It doesn’t really. But it is certainly relevant to why Cassie Campbell is calling hockey games.

Anyhow, I don’t really care.

Soft calls against the flow of the play in a one goal game. Burns my bacon man.

Oh well try to come back and stick it to them i guess.

Not playing great but I'm tired of the uphill battle with the officiating over the last number of games.

Boys aren't "in it" today. The 4 pm start maybe?
