Who Would Ever Replace Mike Lange?

Just about every minor league announcer is bad.

The Devil's (I think) AHL announcer always cracks me up because he's trying so hard to pull off some sort of Howard Cosell schtick, but he ends up sounding like an old timey radio voiceover guy. I'm always waiting for him to tell me which brand of cigarettes is doctor recommended.

They certainly don't try and hide their biases, that's for certain. I like when they move to a new team, especially when that team is a rival. They just take their tendencies and flip them, no biggie. Like the current Hershey guy (can't remember his name) used to do Penguins games until Tom Grace came back for his second stint - hates the Penguins now.

Grace used to be super hard on the Admirals too, who he used to work for before the Penguins. This one player, Ajay Baines in particular. I remember Grace would just flat out call him an idiot on the air.

Speaking of the PA announcer, am I the only one who can't stand how he announces Crosby?

Mill is different, but he's not bad. It's impossible to compare favorably to someone like Barbaro, and it's a very different style, but he's fine.
