Bob Cole's the worst, IMHO. He seems totally oblivious.
- Says Joseph when Legace is in nets
- Says Belfour when he means Weekes at the other end
- Constantly says "And the Leafs will go to the power play" when he means they'll go on the penalty kill, or vice versa
- Has not called a penalty correctly in the past 10 years

wow, let's ease up on the bob cole bashing neil, although i will admit he's not as sharp as he once was and there seems to be early signs of alsheimers, he still has one of the best voices for hockey. He's a legend to the game of hockey as a broadcaster. Not sure who else compares with him, the only other broadcaster that is top notch for me is Jim Houston.

I said Dance little sister dance
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

OOH! I forgot one! I don't know which US network it is, and this doesn't refer to any specific commentator, but here is the #1 that most supremely irks me about watching hockey on US TV:
There is a network actually (I'm not kidding) puts up notices beside the time clock EVERY 10 SECONDS when a player steps onto the ice. I was watching Tampa Bay play, and EVERY TIME Lacavalier, St Louis, Richards or Andreychuk came on the ice, it would say "NOW ON ICE: #4 Lecavalier". And when I was watching Dallas, this note would come on every time Arnott, Guerin, Lehtinen or Modano came on it would do the same thing! WHO NEEDS THAT?! It was annoying and distracting!
Items #2 that does not point to a specific person - in some Stateside games, the referee comes up to a mic over the timeclock-guy's box and yells "WHOEVER - 2 MINUTES FOR HIGH STICKING!" so the crowd can hear him. Very annoying.
