Speaking of announcers, Kenny Albert gets some love for his call today
Pretty much agree with the comments in this article re Kenny Albert, especially considering he's been the lead on every single hockey broadcast the past two weeks. Just being familiar with all the other foreign players is hard enough, but to make calls like this one to boot is pretty special. I'd also like to see AJ Mleczko on some NHL games back in the US. She's good.

I think Knight's goal demoralized Canada.
