Who is your favorite active commentator?

[McGarnagle]

Always loved the Canes commentary by Jack since he hates them so much.

Especially Dougie Hamilton

Jacks Edwards is the male version of Leah Hextall. Having to listen to the two of them call a game together is what I imagine Hell must be like.

I miss Jim Hughson. Now it's probably Chris Cuthbert, like Forslund and Miller as well.

 

[CanadienShark]

Biz.

 

[Allens Five Hole]

I'm biased but I love John Kelly on the Blues broadcast. I'm slightly surprised he hasn't been mentioned as there are several fans from other teams who make it a point to stop by the Blues board and give him a mention.

 

[Phil Kessels Hot Dog]

Bieksa.

Bruins fan and Im fine with Edwards half the time and can’t stand him the other half. Honestly think it’s more him than me. He has nights where he calls a really good game and keeps the extra stuff reeled in and then he has night where he’s a total clown which makes up most of what he is known for league wide.

I think overall Forslund gets my vote. Also really like Dave Goucher for Vegas. Miss him on the radio in Boston. An absolute expert in terms of tone and keeping you on the edge of your seat which made listening on the radio great.

Lots of talk about the bad commentators here lately, so I was wondering who your favorites are. Could be a play-by-play or color guy. Local or national

Play by play on a national level, I like Chris Cuthbert. Always have.

Sean McDonough

Sam Rosen.

I came here to say this. Still got chills when he called "The dynasty will be denied and a new legacy begins!". Really liked Sportsnet as whole in the playoffs. They put alot of emotions in their calls compared to ESPN.

Here are some other gems from him:

I actually hate his voice more than Leah's. Just something about it I can't handle.
