.942 for Soder Popinski.
Skaters and coaching failed.

I like the excitement in his voice. But when a guy that just learnt that hockey existed. I don’t need a gawd dam lesson from coach Vosters about how fighting majors are handed out. Troy keeping him honest. So, I don’t mind his voice, but he may need another decade to figure this game out!!! Worst hockey announcer voice. Whoever selected him for the job should have major surgery on his/her ears. As for the game, one cannot expect much from this roster that has been so decimated by injuries and one player's mental breakdown, or whatever it was. So, now it is on to the slaughter house of the NYC area.

So, now it is on to the slaughter house of the NYC area. I kinda agree with BigT. He *could* be decent if he learned the game, but he doesn't know it at all and doesn't seem to be getting any better at knowing it--and the latter is what's killing me. There are worse out there and he might never have a Foley/Weiderman combo of voice and the ability to call the plan (when serious about calling the play), but he just doesn't seem to be getting it. You'd think having a rudimentary knowledge of the game would have been a prerequisite (i.e. knowing the different between a powerplay and a power strip). But I do agree with you--I think the 'hawks and NBCBN brass just cheaped out when Foley was going to leave. There were a couple of good *new* ones (aside from moving Weiderman/Murray to the TV booth which would have ben the obvious choice), both color and PxP, but instead they went with Vosters and Cheesedick, and now the Vosters/Chelios combo.

He said about 10x last night. “He shoots…….. behind the net”. So basically the guy missed his shot, and the puck went behind the net. Instead of “He missed, far side”. Or high, or short side etc. But he just doesn’t know. I don’t think he’ll get it. I think he believes he’s got it, and that’s what’s crushing him!!!

The people who hired Vosters didn't give a rat's ass if he knew the game or not,this'll happen when non-hockey people run a hockey team.
Look at other team's FO lists and you'll see pages of owners,or boards of governors and you'll also see presidents and vice presidents of business and hockey opps. Above GM in Chicago,we see Danny and Jaime and...........nothin' else......that's it! Neither with a career forged in hockey what soever but since they're the only two actual executives,Jaime Faulkner also represents the Black Hawks as an Alternate Governor for National Hockey Legue matters.
Most NHL teams hire great ex-players to run things,the guy who inherited the Hawks hires baseball guys and interviews basketball GM's.......what a disregard for the sport and it's traditions.

I just cant stand that the kid raises his vioce anytime a player has the puck in O zone and if its 98 he raises it louder. It all sounds so fake and pre planned. I really thought the kid from Detriot did a good job oh well

How often did we say that the Hunter brothers would have been the perfect choice for President hockey ops and GM and/or coach.

Well in 2-3 years you will get a Hunter that will be your GM Whoa whoa whoa. If she gets the team. I’m out. Not because she’s a woman. But because there’s no reason to hire someone with absolutely no experience. Hiring someone because they’re a woman, man or a certain ethnicity does not mean they’re qualified. It just means you’re catering to the lowest common denominator. If a woman is the most qualified. Excellent get her the job. If a half eaten gazelle is the best qualified, get that fuckin gazelle in here!!!

You can tell how this group operates KD will move up to President and Meagan will become GM she will have the same amount of experience as Kyle from Chicago. I am not saying I like it but I see it coming
