I really like Leah Hextall but I’ve never heard her do play-by-play before. Will be interesting. I think with Cassie and Christine Simpson we more or less know what we’re going to get.

I posted this in the other thread it was being discussed in. I'm a huge fan of Leah Hextal, so this is pretty awesome!

Skip to 1:44 for Leah's calls. They go back and forth between her TV calls and Mike Logan's radio calls.

Leah is just awesome in general. I would love her to be a full time flames broadcaster

The big takeaway is that Leah Hextall shouldn't be coming back in some kind of gimmick game, she is authentically better than most of the talent on the Sportsnet roster.

I believe Hextall and Cassie have called women's league games together in the past, so they may have some chemistry.

The dream is that TSN buys the rights for Flames games and then hires Hextall and steals Ball, Hrudey and Ryan from SNET.

Hextall is a triple-threat. She can do PBP, Colour and Panel Host. I have no clue how she doesn't have a FT gig at one of the networks, other than it being her own choice.

She smeared the Oilers, so the Grease Gestapo put a quick stop to that. Leah's awesome

I hope she talks non-stop trash about the Oilers all night.
