Full disclosure I don’t watch a ton of regular season hockey anymore. The Leafs may be on a Saturday night because the wife is a fan but outside of that, I am more an NBA/NFL guy. Maybe I am a bit salty. Right out of broadcast school I worked for the NHL Network for a year then was laid off along with 55 other people when Sportsnet bought the rights to the NHL. Goodbye dream job. In any case, I would much rather watch an out-of-market NBA game over an NHL game 10 days out of 10, so I am in no position to chirp and comment on the broadcast quality of Cassie Campbell.

I saw Cassie trending this morning so naturally took a look as to why because TBH I don’t mind Cassie Campbell and truly believe there should be more women in podcasting and broadcasting. However, apparently, hockey twitter does not agree.

Having to listen to Cassie Campbell is down right painful!! It is even more galling when we are used to John and John, the best in the business, not calling a Canucks home game!!! Get rid of her!!!

You have no business being on hockey broadcasts.

Oooof. Do I think she garners all this criticism because she is a woman in hockey, yes…yes I do. Hockey is a male-dominated bro fest and its fans are much of the same. My opinion aside some women also took shots at Cassie last night.

I watch on mute when Cassie Campbell is on the air. She’s an embarrassment to qualified women who would do a much better job. https://t.co/XKkawGrIOq

It is so disappointing to see Cassie Campbell trending for the wrong reasons every time she calls a game.

Cassie Campbell’s commentary isn’t bothering me as much because a) I stopped listening after 3-0 and b) I’ve had several glasses of wine. #canucks

I admired Cassie Campbell as a hockey player but she needs to be replaced
as a Calgary Flames game announcer.

#Canucks home game but we have to be subjected to Cassie Campbell’s pro-Flames commentary? Ugh.

— Amelia C (she/her) 🇨🇦🇺🇦 (@ameliagrace1989) March 20, 2022

Is she really that bad? I have no idea because like I said I would rather read the dictionary than watch an out-of-market NHL game. Maybe the PP1 guys have some insight on this.

Let’s vote on whether Cassie Campbell needs to get canned instead.

Cassie Campbell-Pascall is THE WORST. If she had a penis instead of a vagina she’d be unemployed. That’s not sexism that’s the TRUTH!!! God awful colour commentator.

Yikes. Poor Cassie, maybe colour commentary isn’t for her. I’ll let you guys tell me what’s up but if hockey Twitter is any indication no Bueno.
