Who pray-tell would you rather broadcast the games?

Gary Thorne? The absolute, hands down worst play by play man EVER? The NHL leaving Espn was the best thing that could have happened to the league for that reason alone.
should be required listening to when it comes to playoff hockey...it's like listening to dave johnson scream "AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME" for horse players, LEGENDARY!!! (i kid, sort of).

it's a new day and age, and NBC sports needs a new voice to carry them into what hockey is becoming (like it or not). I think Jim Hughson out on Vancouver does a great job, and a few others around the league I like.
anyone but the biggest homer announcers ever.... which is awarded to Staggy and Errey, close 2nd going to Jack Edwards in Boston whom i loathe

WHAT???????????????? First of all, Gary Thorne SCREAMED the same in the pre-season as he did in the playoffs, and 2nd, he could care less who was actually on the ice when he was screaming. He was hands down the worst ever. Sorry, it's not even an opinion, it's FACT!
Scratch my back with a hacksaw, why don't ya?
