    Kenny is a solid announcer. It runs in the family. Really does a great job.

    So I guess we'll get Michaletti two hopefully. Eddie O's ok too.

    It'll be Pierre and Eddie O with his "right....THERE!" rounding out the team I'm sure

    I like them all except doc who hardly disguises rooting against the rangers. Other team scores he goes ballistic. Rangers scores he politely calls the goal and then clams up while he's probably cracking his head against the announcers booth walls. Hope he takes a long break.

    I could live without Pierre's rundown of every players midget/bantam teams. Actually I think Emrick overdoes Ranger goals to overcompensate.

    Doc is very annoying. You know who else is annoying which nobody here will like is Joe Micheletti. After every goal he tells you what you just saw. I know blasphemy ripping our own announcer but so be it. There are some horrible announcers in hockey though. The Pitt announcers are HORRIFIC. San Jose has bad ones too.

    Bring back Gary Thorne

    Rose is a play by play guy. Joe is a color guy. Different roles.

    JD and Michaletti are very similar but obviously people are partial to him for sentimental reasons. I don't have any issues with Joe though.
