It's ok

This show is good half the time and the other half of the time it's unlistenable as Haley and Sean sound like they've taken some bong hits and are sitting on a couch stoned randomly talking about hockey.

Miss the Tuesday Boyzzz.

Overall a good show. Miss the variety of previous years. Now it’s a prospect day and Canada coverage unless the Canada coverage somehow involves a US team.

Vocal fry

The reporting is good, but the vocal fry is too much for me to handle. Honestly, enough. Please realize that speaking like that is not at all professional and is actually immature and irritating.
