"The Sturminator" as color analyst.

I am concerned that Razor doing all this HNIC work, are we losing him anytime soon? If so, what is your favorability of Bob Sturm as a color analyst? I communicated with him on Twitter and expressed my opinion that he does have a place in a hockey broadcast booth but I told him he was sitting in the wrong chair. He replied that he had to "get his foot in the door someway". Got no problems with that. However, is he to be the choice of the Stars if Razor leaves?

I don't think sturm would be able to do hockey full time and stay at the ticket, from what ive heard the ticket pays VERY well so it's really going to depend on what he wants to do

Razor's contract doesn't end for a couple of seasons I don't think? Could be wrong on that. But pretty sure. Don't think he's going anywhere anytime soon though. He could have gone to Versus/NBC Sports and been their regular guy if he wanted to I'm sure.

I don't mind the odd game here and there with Sturm but he's definitely not Razor.

Doubt we lose Razor full time.

And I don't mind Sturm, he's just not as good.

Been listening to the ticket for years and during off seasons he fires off audition tapes across the NHL. From what I gather from listening, It's his dream. IDK.

Like Sturm but don't want to break up the R&R combo.
Can you count on the Stars to put up a good, consistent season?
Hell no.

Can you count on Ralph and Razor to continuously do a good job broadcasting? Absolutely.

I like him as a nice change of pace from Razor who, as much as i like him, can be a little overbearing.

Sturm is boring, usually when he's on it's the Ralph Strangis show.

He almost never says anything.

I don't mind Sturm but i wouldn't have him permanently if Razor left. He doesn't seem to be a hockey guy to me. I'd like an ex player. Turco? I know he does some media stuff but i haven't seen any so i don't know how good he is

Modano said via Twitter he was going to do some games, but that never happened.
