I realized one more thing I hate about Pierre McGuire this season. If you listen to a broadcast he's doing, he'll make a reference to the college/CHL team that every player on both teams attended to at least once.

Emrick: "...passes over to Matt Read..."

McGuire: "Matt Read, great numbers coming out of Bemidji State..."

Yes, that displays his great knowledge of major junior and the NCAA hockey scene

Round 2 of who do you hate more. Recap from last time. In a match-up between Darcy Tucker, Tie Domi, Matthew Barnaby, and Sean Avery the clear winner was Matthew Barnaby.

In this addtion we will pit Darren Pang, Geno Odjick, Mike Emrick, and Barry Melrose.

So far we have an even race with the addition a McGuirre and Milbury. I do have to say I can't stand Emrick. My vote goes for him. I hate the voice. I hate the face. And I hate it when he slobbers over Crosby.

The thing with McGuire is, if he just breaks down a play, and avoids the individual hyperbole, he's actually a damned good analyst.

So...who does good play by play / color analyst? I like John Forslund, personally. He is with the Canes during the regular season, but has done many a playoff game for the networks over the years.

The CBC play-by-play guys are the best.

For color, nothing beats Daryl "Razor" Reaugh... he's got more turn of phrase and next-level vocabulary than the Kardashian family has booty.

I was thinking its possible 7 million cap hit. I dont think he can expect Crosb, Malkin, or Perry numbers as their performance is built off of performing at a high level for a longer time. More of a sure bet.

If I'm not mistaken, over the past 4 years Giroux is #4 in the league for total points. I thought he was behind only Stamkos, H. Sedin, and one other whom I forget.
