Millen and Romanuk are horrible and must Leaf fans hate them. Case in point, I watched the Preds feed and always watch the opposition feed when Millen and Romanuk are calling for Sportsnet. In no way are they homers like a lot of other home team broadcasts.
Sorry, what’s wrong with Kelly Hrudey?

They do all Leaf games not on Saturday or TSN. They call a horrible game.

Nothing wrong with Hrudey. I like him. But he and Ball definitely have a slight slant to the Flames when calling a game. Which I think is fine I just wish the Leafs had something like that.

Personally TSN with Ferrero and Gord Miller strike the perfect balance of being slightly biased to the Leafs when calling a game.

My personal opinion is that Hrudey and Ball are about as good as it gets for an NHL broadcasting duo. We are lucky to have them. Hrudey is not afraid to call a spade a spade either and call the Flames out when they’re underperforming. I think he’s pretty even keel calling it both ways.

NSH play a very uptempo attacking style. The way they breakout and gain the zone is a joy to watch. The d jump up carry the puck, add that extra layer and get involved offensively a lot.

From this they get sustained pressure and quality, dynamic scoring chances. With a similarly constructed team, this is how CGY should play IMO.

Somebody should count how many times Drew Remenda says “ohhh” throughout the game.

Shots were 6-3 in favor of the Kings in the 1st. Not a lot of shots. Strange.

After the 3rd(?) consecutive Oilers giveaway the Kings finally bury it. 2-0. Oilers suck.

How are the Edmonton McDavids looking so far? Has the savior made any generational plays yet?

I know I’m supposed to be cheering for LA in this game but I’m certainly not opposed to the Oilers suffering a disheartening loss here. Flames need to take care of their own business period. I want Oiler fans and the media to stop talking about “what if” following every win.

Haha stupid Oilers. Only 3 shots in the 1st. I guess McDavid decided he scored enough goals last game and could take this one off.

So leafs fans think they don’t blow enough sunshine up their ass? Lol, they were splooging over Anderson even when he didn’t make a save.

Would rather the Oilers win, keep the Flames in 3rd and worsen their draft position. Don't care about fans/media they are welcome to get their hopes up only to be crushed again.

I know it would be better for the Flames if the Greasers won, but who in their right mind would ever, in the history of hockey, want that group of losers to have even one game of success?
