The voices of the Stanley Cup Finals in the USA and Canada respectively, whose calls are intertwined with some of our best hockey memories. Who do you enjoy and think adds more?
 
Hughson's got the greatest sports commentator voice on the planet. Y'know, no disrespect to Doc, I actually rather enjoy his "idiosyncratic thesaurus" style. But Jim's just got that god-given gift.
 
im not sure which voice is hughsons when i see highlights from his feeds, but im going to have to vote for him regardless
 
hughson is the most boring milquetoast person on the planet, perfect for his canadian audience but not nearly interesting enough for an american audience.

Ah yes, Canadians are bland and boring, Americans are exciting and thrilling. What a refreshing take based on experience, research and wide reaching conversations and interviews.

Whenever this comes up, I always mention Dave Strader, the GOAT. RIP. (I don't really think he was the greatest of all time, but he was my favorite)

no it has to do with superior Canadian intelligence. Canadians are too smart to be swayed by hype. They don't need all the bells and whisltes to be invested into the best game on the planet. That is Why Hughson works so well up north.

I wouldn't say that, Canadians and Americans are all that different. Some people like bland and soft, others like loud and hard. Find it on both sides of the border.


Personally I can't stand either of them, and it bothers me that the two guys doing play by play in the finals are the two i can't stand the most.
