Yea I mostly want to give her the benefit of the doubt but the little I've heard, her delivery ain't great. Cassie Campbell and Kendall Coyne have done pretty good as color commentators so hopefully Hextall can improve as a play-by-play. Right now she's closer to what you would hear from a lower end AHL broadcast.ESPN hasn't announced who's on the call for this game, but I believe it's Leah Hextall and maybe Brian Boucher. For anyone who hasn't seen it, there's like a 5000 post thread on the main HF NHL page about her. I feel bad saying it, but from what I've heard she's kind of atrocious, particularly in terms of getting names right and making some incoherent goal calls. I hope she's gotten better, especially because I would like to see a woman doing play-by-play well, but instead it seems like ESPN went and hired someone named Hextall who's wildly inexperienced at this job to be given it on a national stage.

I absolutely blame the network for that. Taking someone who hasn't done the job before and throwing them onto the biggest stage with little prep or training is asking them to fail.
