He should been promoted to the late game on HNIC. Superior to Singh and had paid his dues.

The last thing I'll be willing to sit and listen to on a Flames broadcast is two Oiler fans.

I’m happy for Rick and wish him al the best of luck.

That said, why can’t we have nice things? Almost everything to do with hockey as a Flames fan is turning to the worst #### imaginable.

Best of luck to Rick who by all accounts is a quality human.

Really bummed we’re losing him but glad it happened and we had him for so long.

Ball is a beaut, I won't miss him as much as most of you will just because I usually watch the away feed unless Millen was partnered with him because Kelly Hrudey is the worst.

Excellent for him. Big loss for us.

Will make a point of trying to watch the CHI broadcast when we play the Hawks.

I think they'll probably look out of market for a replacement, but it's hard to say.

Is this bad news? Yes.

Does this mean we need a new play-by-play announcer? Yes.

But I've got two words for you -- character, leadership and good people.

There's some kinda replacement that could fit right in.

Made me laugh out loud with this one because I can literally HEAR it in my head as I read your post.

I honestly felt so lucky to have Ball all these years, always felt like he was better than this market/Rogers (more of a compliment to him than a slight to us), especially compared to the gross oilers and Canucks broadcasts.

What's next? Leslie jumps ship too??

Brutal. I just hope whoever replaces him can keep Hrudey contained.
