This is what I’m thinking: • It isn’t on par with the ouster of Joe Theismann from ESPN’s Monday Night Football, but local fans will be happy to hear that hockey analyst Brett Hull is leaving the NBC intermission studio to take a more significant role in the front office of the Dallas Stars.
Hull seemed to say things in NBC’s pregame show and during intermissions that were intended more to get viewers upset than enlighten them.
NBC should consider giving Ottawa’s recently fired general manager, John Muckler, a shot at Hull’s job. He might not fit the younger demographic that networks seek, but Muckler never has been one to carefully weigh his words and he actually has some credibility.
