Does anybody else notice how he always has to reference the Blues at some point(usually at the beginning) of the broadcast?

One would expect him to be professional enough to quit referring to the team he's employed by. One would be wrong.
Took a break between second and third periods last night, walked down aisle no. 18 and he stepped out of a door right in front of me. Small dude. I was walking behind him for a distance there and everyone was saying "Panger" and he was responding cordially. Nice guy.

I like Panger.
Dude is about 4'9" and has his "facts" wrong more often than not but whatever. He was a pretty good goalie for the Hawks for a little bit way back when.
Of course his bias is showing. He is a huge Hawk homer.

Was going to post this exact thing. He's a Hawks homer because he spent his entire pro career in their org. and he works for the Blues so he's always going on about them as well. Nice guy but just a huge homer.

Listening to Pang was frustrating for me last night. I know he's probably a nice guy but **** him.

Panger always bashes Hawks ,, Ever heard him call a Blues/Hawks game?
Not sure what you guys are hearing but Panger has been nothing more then a King homer/Hawks hater this series

No I just typically ignore him.
Maybe he is doing something right if we both think he is being a homer for the other team?
You can't bash Panger, your a Hawks fan and he was pretty big for you guys for a while. Just have to take him with a grain of salt.
A little grain of salt but a grain anyways.

Pang was a mediocre goalie for Hawks
He was so bad in 89 they were forced to put Waite and Belfour in net (Both rookies ,, Waite 19 yrs old and Belfour 23)
They then had to go acquire Alain Chevrier to save season (And he led Hawks on surprise run to Campbell Conf finals)
Panger spent 2 underwhelming years on Hawks ,, Hardly what I would call "Pretty Big'

I was making a size joke.
Chevrier, wow that name brings back memories. So in a way you can thank Panger for Eddie getting his start so early. You still owe him tribute.
BOW BEFORE PANGER HAWK FAN!
Or not, whatever.

Playoffs?!?!
Didn't he at one point say something like "Kompon is a brilliant tactician on the power play!" And then on the ensuring power play, Chicago tried the exact same play several times, from each side of the net, and was stopped each time. One of the other commentators even mentioned it, saying something like "They keep trying that same play, but it's not working."
I rolled my eyes at the first one, and laughed out loud at the second.

ESPN pays quite well to keep him from going elsewhere. He is on NHL network from time to time.

he highlights everything that could be considered penalty worthy against the Kings and makes every excuse as to why the Hawks should not get penalties. Sad because he's good at what he does.

He doesn't provide much insight and I just find that he talks too much. It really gets annoying after a while.

I actually like his enthusiasm and quirkyness even though he gets facts wrong from time to time. Engblom is full blown Pejorative Slur and Pierre Maguire loves to talk about **** nobody cares about and give verbal HJ's to his pet players. I'll take Panger over that anyday.
