Don't know the current situation... But during the lockout in 2005 Sportsnet let Quinn and Principe go. They were brought back that summer as Sportsnet employees but their salaries were paid by the Oilers.

So glad Kerr is going back to afternoons. Can't stand Kirshe on the radio.

I might be one of the very few who enjoyed Walker, but that could be due to me being from Red Deer and appreciating his sports updates on The Drive. With Kerr heading back to join Steinberg in the afternoons, I still think there is something missing on the morning show.

Big improvement on afternoons and TV with this move though.

You're not one of the few. There's a reason he got a better job.

Huge fan of Kerr. Super nice guy, great on the radio. TV just doesn't seem to be his strongest forte. Very excited to have him back on the radio!

Great news.

I wish they would find a way to better utilize Pinder though. I think he is really good but he is a little buried on the morning show since Boomer drives most of the discussion.

It's when you try to post news that you think you're being super quick on, only to find out sureLoss has already made a thread, likely before the event actually even happened.

Horrible promo photo...



It looks like he's been binge-eating and homeless since the season ended.

Not that it needs to be confirmed anymore, as it was said on the radio already today, but just got the email from the FAN960 fanclub announcing Rob Kerr back on May 5th, so it's even more super official now.

Dammit Getbak, now my post looks stupid!

I will never forget some hilarious Rob Kerr play by play moments. I'll share some here (all from the NYE game against Philly this year).

Hudler falls near the blue line - "Hudler takes a dump... (long pause)... on the ice..."

Guys slashing each other while set up for a face off - "McGrattan and X (can't remember who) hacking and whacking off".

He reminds of Tobias from Arrested Development...

Too bad there isn't a catalog of his famous quotes, they're good for a laugh.
