They dealt with the losing, pathetic play about as long as we all did, and they had to talk through it all about it all. Especially Goldie, now you guys wanna complain about their excitedness with how great the team is? C'mon guys.
Goldie and Potvin

Yes? They are getting paid to talk so i expect them to be informative and proffesional. Atm they are just repeating the same lines and on top of that having ridicolous amounts (hfboards levels) of homerism. They should take notes from the Columbus and Carolina broadcasters. Is it no longer acceptable to demand/request anything above bad/average due to the team being good?
This is my point of view as a seasoned fan of the Panthers. For new fans the current state of boradcasting can be argued as something positive.

Believe!
It is a drag hearing about them going on about every "missed" call, but all in all they are better than anything we previously had.

Do you guys watch other telecasts? Everybody's announcers are homers, except Washington. And yes, Billy is a Homer too

Billy has been awesome on nhl network.
having someone with Panther ties in the seats is great for our exposure.

Randy Moller is excellent. I feel like being between the benches isn't a good use of his talent.

I remember how people here disliked Lindsey, but he was a charismatic funny guy. He doesnt look so bad now?
We should make a Potvin drinkinggame.
I was always a big fan of Lindsay. And his rapport with Goldie was good.

There is just different levels of homerism though. Billy is toned down in that department.

I get everyone loves Bill Lindsay as a person. I've met him and he was super nice. But he's not a good broadcaster. He's insightful but he stutters and bumbles something furious and just isn't a good public speaker.

Thx weeseered.
This is the most ridiculous unnecessary apology I've seen. He's a color commentator for a local team. Comments like this are made day in day out.
Absurd.
Might as well apologize to ufl niilson.

Not sure if I agree with this
Just came by as a canuck fan because I was curious how you guys felt about your broadcasting team.
I'm an avid NHL fan, even though my home team is the canucks so I watch a ton of games on GCL.
I've always felt the FLA pbp guy to be homer'ish but nothing crazy. The Potvin guy always annoyed me.
The hurricanes guys are superb, along with the Stars crew. I also like the Kings crew.
Surprised you guys would consider the Caps or Jackets crew to be decent, I always thought their homerism leaked through the TV too much. The colour guy for the canucks is awful too, I wish I could turn him off

Randy Moller really is a great radio broadcaster and would be fun to have calling it on TV. There's really only been one great PBP guy on TV though for us, and that's Dave Strader, who since he was from ESPN, was pretty unbiased on most nights I thought.
Yeah Billy isn't really good at it, that's evident. I think he might actually be better than Potvin though, at least he's a bit more "with it". I don't hate Goldie as he defends the team pretty well, but we can do better I think.

The future of this team is in Doug Plagen's hands. The guy is a gem on the radio, and I believe will be awesome on TV

Yes I didn't acknowledge him above but he's been pretty good the few times I've listened.
