Yes I have a subscription to Sirius/XM, Gordo is on Ch 91.

It pays for itself, no more relentless commercial programming. I decided to switch to satellite after non-stop commercials on Q107 on a drive on the 400 from Black Creek to Langstaff. My chores are far less stressful these days...but I miss Kim Mitchell.

Some of their analyst team and presentation is minor league.
Get rid of shit like Sam Cosentino. He is terrible.

Jennifer Botterill is a huge part of the PC agenda. That's the only reason she's on there. While she knows a bit about hockey, she knows nothing of professional men's hockey. It really shows when she tries to tell Bieksa that he's wrong, when he tells it like it is. She should stick to her lane and that's women's hockey.

She ruins the broadcasts for me! I’m getting to the point where I refuse to watch their intermissions. I swear that Bieksa is guiding/writing her analysis. And Ok I get it but surely at a minimum, they can spruce up her appearance-she looks like a man in a dress ffs. And the clothing she wears?

Hockey Night certainly did lose its way and it's all connected to being as politically correct as possible.

McLean is a douche bag, who will promote any and all PC ideology that he can. Like others, I despise him for what he did to Cherry. If it wasn't for Coaches Corner, McLean would be a nobody.

Kelly Hrudey is just everybody's friend. He wouldn't say shit if he had a mouth full of it. I do like Kelly though, as he has a good perspective and I have respect for him, both as a player and person.

Kevin Bieksa is the only bright spot of all the hosts. Unfortunately they've reined him in. Where you used to see him "correct" or get right into it with Botterill and Friedman, he now goes quiet, not pushing the fact that he's basically right. It's fucking sad.
