BTN Gopher Hockey has the absolute worst sports announcer in all of sports--Ben Clymer. Unlike other televised sports games, there is very little play-by-play announcing on BTN Gopher Hockey. Instead, Ben Clymer talks down to his audience (Squirt hockey players) in his long-winded comments that have very little to do with the live action. Clymer falsely poses as a self-anointed hockey expert giving condescending hockey instructions while ignoring the live action. BTN massages Clymer's over-sized ego by displaying photos of Clymer as a Gopher hockey player. BTN is a bush-league operation and it fails to provide decent hockey announcers. [By the way, I bleed maroon and gold--B.S. 1966, M.A. 1969, and certification 1974-1975). Moved to Washington State in 2002 and faithfully watch Gopher Sports on real sports stations such as ESPN and bush-league stations like BTN.] To avoid the Clymer distraction, I have to mute BTN hockey games and get actual live game commentary on Gopher hockey radio streaming. Unfortunately, BTN TV and Gopher radio streaming are not in sync.
