To be honest with you, I like them, I think they do a good job, I think they made great strides as a broadcast team through the course of the year... Dan Hammer is a standup guy I find him approachable and he's been a fixture on my TV for many years and that being said, I like Pat Sweeney too.
I watch a lot of hockey probably in the 100's of games every year, the announcers that bothers me the most are the guys from Pittsburgh, Anaheim and Vancouver.
I also think that Doug McLeod is a brutal announcer and difficult to listen to and makes me long for Wooger and Frank. I also don’t mind LaPantha and think he’s also made great strides with the Wild.
